    My cousin lives out there. She's OK, thank goodness! What an awful thing.

        Hope he's alright! OKC proper wasn't a direct hit but needless to say there are lots of power outages etc., so don't panic if you haven't heard from him.

          Coincidentally, I heard from him right after I read this on the news. He's okay; he's actually in Chickasha, but they could see if from where they were working. Cell phones are down, he stole some wifi from a McDicks to send me a text.

          It was scary for a few minutes there, though.

              Yes, this was a sad way to begin the day today. My prayers are with them also.

                The devastation is absolutely amazing - that school, in particular. Anybody being injured or killed in a disaster is terrible, but thinking of those third grade kids (8 years old) just makes me shudder.
                Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                    The bf is really worried about the kids, too. In the brief text I got from him yesterday, all it said was "I'm safe, I'm okay, but I hope the kids are okay"

                    I feel a bit awful because just last week we were talking about tornadoes, and I was chiding him for not being excited to see one (he saw a super tiny one last week that didn't touch the ground). But...I didn't think a massive one would show up.

                        I know...I don't understand that. That's dead center of Tornado Alley.

                          What I don't understand is why are the children's lives deemed more important than the adults? I mean, yeah, I feel bad for the elementary school too, but what about the adults? If there are 20 kids dead, out of a count of 47, then that's still 27 adults dead.

                          Why isn't anyone feeling bad for the adults?

                            The lack of storm shelters in Tornado Alley confounds me too - always has. I grew up in north Texas and we saw tornadoes every single year - and yet nobody seemed to have so much as a basement to hide in. Oh, and to top it off, basements only seem to exist in places like I'm at now - where floods are a huge problem. Seriously? Let's just take all the basements away from flood-prone areas and put them in tornado-prone areas...they really need it and the flood areas really don't. Storm shelters and basements should be standard stuff down in Tornado Alley. I imagine we'd have a lot less tragedy...
