"Ampersand", probably

Hour lunches today were awesome, especially since the class during which I had lunch was in a computer lab, so I was able to use the computer for an hour before and after lunch

My boot started making that damned noise again. I'm going to Redwing boots later

Do you always wear boots throughout the day?

Yup. I can't find tennis shoes that fit and I do not like sandals/ flip-flops

sneakers are much more confortable for all day wear, especially in hot weatrher. My boots are for hiking, working, etc, not all day wear.

I'm a deck shoes man myself. Or the "frat boy low quarter" if you prefer.

The tornado alarm has just gone off and I'm in the basement (just to be on the safe side).

Be a man; Go outside and beat the tornado to death with a shovel for making you hide in your shitty basement :p

Maine got a tornado last year, i think it busted some dudes shed or something.
