I have power again!! No more cold showers. No more lukewarm sodas. No more fumbling with candles and flashlights. And internet, glorious internet!!! Hello folks! I've missed you!
...damage; a few broken shingles from a neighbor’s tree. No big deal. Also, Elly’s animal rescue efforts have taken a new twist as she is finding dogs on the street who were “set free” in anticipation of Gustav. Trying to find foster homes for two of these at the moment -- till we can, hopefully, locate the idiotic owners who would do this type of thing. A couple of interesting (and controversial...
I was sitting here listening to the downpour of rain outside my window and I'm wondering if all my flisters that were/are in the path of the hurricanes are ok. Hopefully you guys have battened down the hatches and curled up with the fam and gave Gustav, Ike and Hanna a big HA! FU!!!. Seriously I hope everyone and their familes and their homesteads are faring well in the hurricane season.
Well. Loads of shit changed since I was last online, which is hilarious considering I've only been gone for five, six days. Five or six very hot days, five or six lonely days with a dying phone because...now is? How is this supposed to work anymore? Any of this? I have to go back to school Monday... I don't even give a shit about school anymore. I didn't even realize it was September until last night
Everything is okay on my end. The worst damage we got was a ton of limbs in the yard, and no one had any trees on their houses this time. Yay. Some friends aren't so lucky. Jennie and Sarah's porch collapsed...I haven't commented on anyone's LJ or really tried to talk to anybody. I don't know when I'll be back, but hopefully soon, once I get everything straightened out and figured out and hopefully fixed.
Okay people. I was talking to a friend and she mentioned wanting to see Gustav's dad and I remembered that picture from about a month back, with him and that bunch of fangirls. I can't find it anywhere, though. I've been sloshing my way through th_cult old posts (not fun, just FYI) for the past half hour now. It's almost 3am. I'm tired. I SHOULD be sleeping. SOMEONE tell me that they were...
Yeah, Scorpions and my AWESOME vocal chords. That's right baby, consider yourself fully rocked like a hurricane. Also, they finally moved the useless scanner that's been keeping me company and... The Mae Shi and Matt and Kim . Check 'em out, kiddy-winks! EDIT: Gorramit, I just noticed my mouse suddenly morphs into a wireless in the 4th panel. OH WELL, GUESS YOU'LL ALL JUST HAVE TO DEAL.
After three years with no hurricanes, I had to make ready for a visit from Gustav. Firstly, what kind of name is Gustav? Seriously, I did not feel in the least threatened by the evil GUSTAV! LOL. Okay, that’s a lie, but my nerves had more to do with the fact that this was the first hurricane in which I was in college (so I actually had my own place to worry about) and also the first hurricane without...
