There once was a hurricane approaching my area.

Ah! That's always such a scary thing, because there's such a dreaded anticipation that goes along with it, a whole, "Will it? Won't it?" kind of game of seeing whether it will head in your direction. I live in the southeast, so I've dealt with worrying about plenty of them.
human
I am so happy I was ready for it.

Yeah, there's always that fury of activity by everyone to go stock up on gas, groceries, and other materials like batteries, etc. So, did it ultimately end up hitting you, or no?
human
No, just a few trees fell in the front yard. Thank goodness.
