just how tired?

Ever since starting this job, I've commented about how exhausting it is. It's hard to quantify it. Just how tiring is it? Yesterday was unusually busy for a Saturday. No common thread to the issues, just an unusual amount of everything. I avoided yard work afterward (as usual) and just watched television until bedtime instead.

Last night, there was a Minneapolis tornado warning. I didn't know until I woke up this morning and saw the news headlines. I saw on Reddit how people reacted to the phone alert, some local electrical outages, the thunder-rattled windows, some video of the lightning (even this plane), and especially this commemorative t-shirt ("I survived the 1am tornado scare").

I slept through it. I didn't hear the tornado sirens blare. I didn't hear the phone alarm beeps. I didn't hear the thunder. I just slept through it all. That's how brain-tired I was.
