Yes, son and GF work for Tesla. She was clever enough to suggest staff take vehicles and move them out of the path of the storm, but instead they moved them to the parking garage at the Palm Beach airport. Oh well, nice try.

My business phone was in Broward prior to us closing the office so I got a call this morning that I was in a mandatory evacuation area and get the hell out of town. Unlike many phone type alerts it had me press a key to confirm that I got the message. Then thanked me for confirming!

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

Sending out all kinds of love and vibes for the coming apocalypse alien terraforming!

Thanks, friends. He's probably going to be fine, but I can't help worrying. Since he started feeling lousy this weekend, each update from my mom has been more bad news than good, so it's got me on edge. Hoping the IV antibiotics start working their miracle soon.

Thinking good thoughts for all those in Irma's path, too.

Aw, man, two of my work friends are leaving. Both are because they are going to better positions elsewhere, but still a bummer for me. Especially as I don't know how the hiring freeze will affect backfilling their positions. Small potatoes compared to the terraforming, etc., but still a drag.
