What the...?

so earlier....i'm relaxin' this blistering summer afternoon in houston. i'm flipping channels and hit upon a story on cnn.

there's something out in the gulf of mexico..... may become a tropical depression.... planes flying out to take a look.... blah, blah, blah....

so i think i'll check on it again later.

suddenly it's a motherfuckin' tropical storm!

when the hell did that happen.....? earlier today that blonde on cnn said it might not even generate into a tropical depression.

then i turn on the weather channel again and there's a "local hurricane statement" scrolling along the bottom of my screen.

son of a bitch...

tropical storm edouard. sounds like a guy i slept with twice back in the fall of 2002.

anyway.... i've actually been hoping for a tropical storm for some time now... i could use a good day of storms. i mean, i love storms.

but suddenly it's a strong tropical storm... slight chance it could become a low-grade hurricane.

and the bitch of it is... i was at the store at 4:30 this afternoon just before they upgraded it... never thought of picking up water or other supplies.

oh well... i have plenty o' booze should anything happen.

if the power goes out... party at my place!
