Hurricane

Too close for my comfort.

It has been raining all day here in the tristate area, thanks to some hurricane.  There have been multiple tornado warnings (something new for this area).  Unsettling weather, you could say.  It's hot and humid. I can feel my hair curling and my eyelashes straightening as I type this.   My car's tires are shot, which means I am feeling unstable on the wet roads.  Things are not right at work.

It all feels like this picture makes me feel: tense, unprotected, with instincts at full attention (who needs to know anything about apes to understand what this greyback is saying?) but at war with my rational brain that tries to assure there is nothing of which to be afraid and that the glass will hold.
