Speaking of Camping...

Someone (I'm guessing my boss) "recognized [my] leadership skills" and nominated me to go on some weekend camping retreat/conference for the university. I suppose I should suck it up and network and all that crap I hate. It's free and something I can throw onto a resume.

The tornado sirens went off shortly after 7 p.m. This did not give me a warm, fuzzy feeling, considering what happened last time the tornado sirens went off around here. Instead of looking outside and ignoring it when I determined the sky didn't look so bad, I actually checked the weather. It was 8 miles north and nothing ever touched down. So no worries.
