Today a severe storm passed through at 5:30. Where was I? In Sam's Club!
The staff mobilized quickly and everyone in the building was escorted to the back into the bathrooms. I stayed outside the bathroom area with the staff.
The staff brought out water and cookies for everyone, asking the customers to remain calm. We could hear the rain and wind pelting the building.
Then at 6:00 when the emergency was over, they let us leave the store. I had gone in to buy a rotisserie chicken...and yes, it was worth the wait by the bathrooms!
Ironically, the Internet is also down--from a cut line, not the storm! You'll need to look up the song, but it's worth it! I've highlighted today's song before, but it's completely appropriate for the happenings today. Check out Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Couldn't Stand the Weather."
