Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dana, your family didn't evacuate to any of the other areas that are now threatened, right?

They're in Jackson and Vicksburg, MS. They'll be getting some heavy winds later today. The bigger concern is the family house that's on the coast near Bay St. Louis, which was destroyed by Camille.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I was only in NOLA for maybe 72 hours, but hearing about and seeing the destruction makes me cry. I fell in love with that city and am sad it won't be quite the same when I go back.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I wonder how Ann Rice is doing.

Probably drinking heavily and overwriting a book.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

WDSU is reporting that water has reached a 2nd floor of a casino in MS.

Aimee, that's funny.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

She'll be needing all that water to put out the burn she just got.

...right after I wake up I say things as though I was drunk.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If she can outlaw editing, I'm sure banning floods should be no problem.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I wonder how Ann Rice is doing.

Anne Rice sold her Garden District mansion in NO. She bought a home in La Jolla, CA. She may still maintain some kind of residence in NO, but I think she got tired of all the fans visiting.
