The local weather stations just issued “Take Shelter” warnings for my neck of the woods…specifically mentioning my neighborhood!” They are advising us to move into a small room in the lowest, most interior part of the house and to cover ourselves with pillows and blankets.
If, for whatever reason, I don’t make it to Bownanza, please notify the authorities to look for our bodies downstairs in the Christmas Closet. We will be covered by old Christmas tree skirts that we no longer use (one, because my sister’s dog urinated on it even though, as she says, “I swear he’s house broken and probably reacting to the stress” caused by my husband who yelled at him to get off the furniture, and another that my friend, Steve, threw up on during an unfortunate bout of inebriation at the annual varsity baseball holiday party in 1992 (it was my turn to host that year), buried in shredded Douglas fir (artificial), frankincense and myrrh, having suffered unseemly deaths by a thousand cuts from the shattered remnants of the ceramic Nativity scene where, in a surreal statement of the power of the spirit, the Baby Jesus will be the only piece left in tact.
All joking aside, stay safe y’all. Hearing about ground tornados spotted in eastern Williamson County (Round Rock).
