It looked pretty much like the one in Emmy's link, but with a cushioned seat and back. I'm going to have to settle for a rocker recliner, I think. Because unless I get the propmasters to build me one, I don't think I can curl up in a rocker any more. :)
It was just that I suddenly felt like I did in that hotel room, huddled over the internet, trying to tune in our local radio station, and watching the national news simultaneously. Hearing about people on roofs and shootings and lootings and fires and seeing our officials cry, and wondering if there was a home to go back to, and wondering if life as we knew it was over.
Of course the news was exaggerated as often is the case. But life as we knew it is over, so it wasn't completely wrong.
It's silly to feel so distressed. We had a very trauma free evacuation. We weren't at the Superdome or Convention Center like some people we knew. Our house wasn't flooded. We didn't go to a shelter except to pick up our inlaws (who refused to evacuate when we did.) We evacuated very early and went to our reserved hotel room. We were really very lucky.
