FYI

We are all fine (and "all" includes my parents, sister, and grandmother) and were nowhere near 35W during rush hour today.

I would encourage other Minneapolis readers to post updates, like, now. Because HOLY FUCKING CRAP. I was out to dinner and came back to Ed on the phone, calling his out-of-state relatives to say that we're fine.

Thank you for posting! I was worried. Lots of friends in that area, and am thankful that everyone that has checked in so far is okay.

Doog and I are fine. We haven't heard of anyone we know on the bridge.

Knock wood it stays that way.

Oh, good! I'm going down my list of Twin Cities people on LJ, myself, now that my mother has checked on my brother Tim and his family.

Unnerving is what it is!

Glad you're okay. Let me know if you hear from rebecca_m, would you?

She's in Michigan.

[lilisonna.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I broke down and called about 5 minutes after the post. I'd thought she was elsewhere, but needed to double-check.

Oh thank goodness. I saw the headline and started running through everyone I knew in Minneapolis, and it turns out to be a lot of people.
