Conversation at 1:30am

We had very strong wind gusts last night. At some points it sounded like a freight train was bearing down on the house. I had been trying to get to sleep for hours.

Me: “I can’t sleep, the wind is howling too much”.

John: “Shhhhhhh”

Me: “It sounds like the trees behind us are going to uproot and crush us, it’s scaring me”.

John “Those trees aren’t big enough to kill us”

Me: “They aren’t?”

John: “No, we’d just have a lot of insurance paperwork to fill out”

Me “Oh…..well.....then I hope they land in the kitchen”.

John: “ Go to sleep”
