So, here I am riding the exercise bike in my room, minding my own business, when The Spare walks in. Mind you, I am watching my husband, Anderson Cooper, report from the areas affected by Hurricane Sandy. The TV is showing a video of New Jersey which includes footage of a huge area of houses (do they call them housing additions in Jersey?) that are inundated with sand brought in by the storm. Scary stuff, even if you are watching it from hundreds of miles away.
I said to Seth "can you believe all that sand? That's just awful." Seth replied "is that sand? I thought it was snow." "Nope, it is sand." "What the heck? Did the hurricane do that?" "Yep."
We sit, silently watching the footage, and taking in the commentary. Suddenly, Seth says "wait a minute. What's the name of that hurricane again?" "Sandy," say I. "WHOA...........did they do that on purpose?"
Once it sunk in, I laughed for probably about twenty minutes.
