Crazed weathering

It seems the weather might once again demonstrate its dominance over humanity. We just take for granted that we can control our environment, and then when nature threatens we freak out! Or think about freaking out, anyway, cause this hurricane might mess up my plans for next weekend. Not only am I driving to a wedding in the projected path of the storm, but it is outdoor! I'm glad I don't have to worry about alternate plans for this event. Weddings seem like a lot of unnecessary work and responsibility to me. If I wanted to live with someone forever, have kids and share a future with them, would I feel better after a ceremony binding us together? What about one that works on, like, half the people who go through it?
