Mother Nature Was Like J/K!

i got to work this morning, and immediately, my coworker jesse informed me of this horrendous stretch of storms that was supposed to hit us around lunch time today. the ones that swept through the southeast and absolutely devastated alabama. i am not fond of tornadoes. i think they are…

Official Red Hatter
