askye at 04:36pm on 04/09/2004I went to the grocery store to pick up stuff, and then went back for flashlights and STILL forgot to get what I really needed. Damnit.
There were flashlights but not much ice. People were buying water like crazy. Although some people were just shopping like it was normal. At least I think they were, cake and wine aren't things I consider hurricane necessities.
Frances is already bad. I was watching the news and thinking those people who are standing out there in the weather broadcasting live are nuts. Evidentally one correspondent got hit with a piece of stryafoam and was seriously injured. I'm in the Big Bend area so we won't be get hit as bad, but it's kind of up in the air, there's always the direction it travels and also if it crosses into the Gulf and comes back out. I figure at least there will be lots of flooding and trees down. Hopefully no electricity going out.
I also realized that the big mirror in my bathroom is kind of loose. We may have to take that down if it looks like the storm will hit here bad. Mom's got her garage she can get into, it's partially under a hill and we have the hall if that's what it comes to. This house was built in the 70s and they built stupid floor plans. Also we live in the county so if the power goes, so goes our water.
Hmmm...it's sounding like maybe I should stay with Mom. I'll see how it goes.
