If you live in MN and turned on a t.v. yesterday, or if you live out of state but watched your news, you probably heard that part of a freeway here in MN collapsed over the river today.
As i heard, I briefly scanned those who are close to me and could think of no occasion that would have put any of them on the bridge at that time. My concern for loved ones never made it much further than that.
45 seconds later, my father called to make sure Jenny and I were okay. An hour later, my brother called. In between there, I got text messages from 2 other individuals, one of whom I haven't talked to for almost 9 months.
I guess some of us are just wired to worry, and some of us roll with the punches. I'm much more a roll with the punches kind of guy.

Once the news hit the late night news around the nation, we received two calls from Kentucky relatives checking up on us. It is nice to know that people care.
Tony and I did the same thing. We couldn't think of anyone we knew who might have been in that area, but we received about 1/2 dozen calls/texts to check on us. One also from someone I hadn't talked to in a couple years!
It IS good to know people worry/care. I wondered if we were careless to not check on anyone.
