From a coworker who doesn't know me all that well (meaning we don't hang out and chat much because she's insanely busy and rarely in the front office), regarding Hurricane Katrina: "When I first heard the name I thought 'how weird, because Katrina is such an uncommon name, and so what are the chances that I'd know someone with the same name as this incredibly destructive hurricane'... and then I thought 'well, it is somehow fitting, because you're definitely a force of nature to be reckoned with.'"
... I ... uh?
I'd actually been eyeing the "Reflections of a Sentient Tornado" (credit for phrase goes to
kahnman) link text on my LJ and thinking it might just be time to change that.

*love*

I don't know... it just seems appropriate. Kind of a physical manifestation acknowledging the trouble that you are going through.
I never claimed to be rational -- just unique.
