I'm on call and tethered to a one-hour radius away from NYC - which means
I'll be able to rush to our data center if anything happens, but which ALSO
means I'll be in the blast radius in case anything goes horribly wrong.
I'll either be in our Park Ave. board room to watch the explosions, or I'll
be off in Conneticut somewhere in the forest.

It sound's as if you have a nice evening planned....
I will be one of the Legion of those standing guard
(electronically) that night, I will be manning our data center,
"just in case"...
