air raid
we saw the devil wears prada last saturday after catering the wedding anniversary that took place in our "bedroom". we figured the movie was a good way to kill time while the party winded down. except it turns out the party hadn't wound down at all after the movie ended. so we drove back in to town looking for something to do. well, both bars in town were dead and we were tired anyway so we parked in an empty parking lot to sleep for a while before heading back to the party hall. it turns out the car is pretty comfortable for sleeping and we both dozed off quickly.
then the air raid siren went off. we both bolted awake with no idea what the hell it meant or what we were supposed to do. "let's get out of here" i said in a daze. so della started the car and we drove back to the hall, which was now totally abandoned. we weren't sure if the party was actually over or if everyone had evacuated. but we didn't hear any planes or explosions, or feel any earthquakes, or see any fires or smoke, so we decided to just accept our fate and go to sleep.
we found out the next morning we had parked next to the back of the fire station and when the fire truck leaves the station in this particular town it sounds an air raid siren (like from WWII) instead of the usual wailing siren.
