Katrina
[keywords: katrina disaster iliveinafishbowl]
I'd like to thank everyone who has been calling and emailing today, it's touching to have so many people worried about ones welfare. As most of you know I live in the New Orleans/Baton Rouge area and as such am in queue for an ass raping of a category 5 magnitude. The closest I've come being Hurricane Andrew I'm somewhat sober over what can happen, but I have an extrodinary amount of luck so more than likely I will get through this without issue. :)
The electric company has issued statements saying to expect the power to be out for days, be realistic to acknowledge that it could be out for weeks, and not to be too incredibly surprised if we lose power for upwards of a month. I don't know what the hell I'll do without power for that long... Cry more than likely.
On the off chance that we do have power I will jump on here and try to keep everyone updated, either by IM or posts here. Those of you who have my phone number are welcomed to call, I've even gotten out to buy a corded phone so as to be able to talk with no power. Teh Yay!
Again, thanks for all your messages and calls. It really felt great to have such support. :)
