I am ridiculously and irrationally afraid of tornados. To the point that I partially selected my college based on which of my options was the least likely to have a tornado. 

I'm assuming this has something to do with the time I slept through a tornado and then woke up to found the house wrecked (windows blown out, things pretty badly damaged) as a kid. 

I also still often have nightmares of tornados. In fact, I had one last night. 

WELL, GUESS WHERE THERE ARE FUCKING TORNADOS RIGHT FUCKING NOW?!?? 
Like 10ish miles away from my house to the north and south, and a few hundred miles to the east.  

I'm done with this. I'm going to take something to make me sleep like the dead and go to bed. Thanks to my precious mountains we don't get tornados where I'm at, so I'm more in danger of having a panic attack than a tornado. My brain knows this, but the rest of me has decided I'm in mortal peril.
