Art Crawl!!!

Happy Birthday Jen and Meara!

NPR was freaking me out with all the talking about New Orleans in the past tense!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Mine is a skip-skip-skip with very occasional skim. A skipppppppmpppp.

You should throw an occasional skip-a-dee-doo-dah in there.

ION, the eye of the storm has hit East of NO, and the most damage from a hurricane usually comes to the East of the eye (due to the counter-clockwise rotation of the wind, the storm surge is strongest there).

What is even happening?

See. This is why I can't deal with much media coverage. It's the fear mongering. Now, I'm all for getting people out, and keeping them safe, and making them take it seriously. I know this is a horrible situation for the Gulf Coast--frightening, dangerous, and so darned unpredictable, but that past tense stuff is beyond the pale.

I'm afraid to read the Super Dome roof coverage, but I think I must.

Continued prayers and good thoughts for everyone in this storm's path.

So far it's just leaking. There's no big hole in the roof or anything - they think the weatherproofing might be peeling off.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My lounge is here!

I'm posting from it right now.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy birthday to Jen and meara!

Busy weekend. Saturday we spent most of the afternoon cleaning the kitchen and bathrooms in the condo.(It goes on sale next week) Yesterday we(with the help of some friends) cleaned out the storage unit I've been renting.(One of the friends who helped was delighted that he got to toss some dumpster-bound furniture off a second story balcony. It's the little things that make life good...)

My back and arms are a bit sore, which isn't really surprising to me.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Too bad he turned into a hipster freak.

OK, MSNBC says a little different:

At the Superdome, where thousands sought shelter, two holes opened in the roof and rain was leaking in.

And some ~ma for this guy:

Resident Chris Robinson said via cellphone from his home east of downtown that “I’m not doing too good right now.”

“The water’s rising pretty fast,” he added. “I got a hammer and an ax and a crowbar, but I’m holding off on breaking through the roof until the last minute. Tell someone to come get me please. I want to live.”
