Sorry to be such a killjoy. I'm just horrified at the options those in the islands face. Continental coast too, but islands, you're just a pebble plowed over and there is no highway inland. (I get viscerally kinda freaked out on islands. But then, the ocean weirds me out too. Not a candidate for island life.)
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

Guys, I have been up since 2am angry with mr. flea and how am I even going to live through this week? I would like some kind of gold start for not waking him up and shouting at him. (The angriness is because although we've been planning this major home project for literally six months, he did not fully engage with basic things until Sunday, when our choices were due Monday. So while I have been researching fridges online for weeks, and was ready to make a final decision Sunday, he *started* Sunday, and he's a slow-moving guy, and I am GOING TO KILL HIM.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
flea, I empathize. That is definitely something Tim would do (and has done, just not on as large of a scale).

Our wings are not tired.
flea was totally with me knitting when mr. flea was killed. Also, is he related to my DH?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Have just discovered that my brother's girlfriend is on Dreamwidth, somewhere. Worlds colliding. Do not especially want.
I mean, Dreamwidth doesn't necessarily equal fandom, but there's a more than zero chance.

I have a cousin who I don't otherwise interact with who sends me the occasional do you want to lose weight and get healthy messages every 6 months or so. She sells shakes and works as a personal trainer. She constantly posts about how perfect her life is.
Guess who got their first ever speeding ticket today?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Maria hit Dominica as a cat 5.
I saw this and did a double take. I wouldn't hit Dominica, because I like her. (Yes, I know someone named Dominica.)
I hope my namesake hurricane gets her shit together by falling apart. The islands need a little grace right now.
Ugh, Mr. flea. You've had MONTHS.
Consuela, the physical act of mourning someone's passing through funerals, etc. (especially dealing with other mourners) is fucking exhausting on the family. I'm sorry that you all have to experience it again. Please rest and take care of yourself.
