My husband makes me laugh

I woke up this morning alone, hearing helicopters overhead.  Lots of them.  I thought they were in my dreams and I was a little disoriented upon waking and realizing they were real.  My first thought was someone broke out of jail - it's a few miles from our house.  Drew had taken Maya for a walk and I kind of started to worry.  If there was a bad guy on the loose, I'd really prefer my husband and dog to be home behind locked doors.


Thankfully, they came home a few minutes later and he told me I'd probably need to take a few extra minutes to get to work this morning, since there were helicopters everywhere.  


I may or may not have mentioned it, but I'm slightly obsessed with spies/trained assassins.  I don't know where it came from but a good spy movie or TV show and I'm hooked.  Hence my daughter's fetus name and the occupation I wish I could have.  So naturally, when we found out a tanker exploded on the freeway just around the corner from our house, my first thought was *gasp! Spies!*

I did a Google image search for the accident and instead

found a disturbing number of images for tankers that have exploded in Dallas.

Seriously, there were a bunch!  Tankers just be explodin' y'all!

I'm such a dork.

Anyway, I drove to work over a bridge with a birds-eye view of the freeway where the tanker hit.  It was pretty bad - there was a YOUGE black spot where it hit and I'm so glad no one died.  I called Drew.

Me:  You know that bridge right over the freeway?  You can totally see where the tanker blew up!

Drew:  Wow, that's crazy.

Me:  I bet it was spies.  *gasp!*  What if it was Michael Westen and he thwarted some mastermind's evil plan!  And he had to blow up the tanker to save the city!  BABE!

Drew:  Could be.  But I bet it was Agent S.

Me:  Oh yeah right.  I would have known if she left.

Drew:  Maybe not.  She is a baby spy, she's sneaky.  It happened at one in the morning and you were sleeping pretty soundly.

Me:  I was!!  What if our baby single-handedly foiled some evil plan and saved us and saved the city!!  And then came back before I even woke up!

Drew:  It's entirely possible.  In fact, it's highly likely.

I hung up with him thinking that we have the coolest baby ever.

My fetus saved the city - it's entirely possible.
