Well I am sitting at my computer waiting for Ike to slap us like Tina. I swear the waiting is the hard part. I have all the animals in the house. Hercules is already bitching about being in, but he can just get over himself. He is so not going to ride out the storm outside. The surprise with Ike is the ....storm surge. Most of Galveston is underwater. I couldnt' believe that it came in so early. Ike hasn't even made landfall yet, and already we are under seige. All life comes from the ocean, and she takes back what she wants. She is taking back some of Texas right now. I so want this to be over. I am dreading the loss of power. The only good news, a cool front is headed our way to help cool down the temps. Thank you Mother Earth.
Lisa and her mom left today to go to her mom's aunt's house. I was hoping she would get to come ride the storm out with me. We could of had a lot of fun. Talking about our world and the things we create in it would have been a great distraction from being closed up in this house. I couldn't even get into WWE tonight and that is unusual. See, he is not even onshore yet and I'm already tired of his a**.
I put Essa and Banner in the garage and haven't fed them. I am hoping to cut down on doggie bombs in the garage. I tied them up so Essa won't eat the contents of the garage during the night and Banner won't scratch and whine at the door. I think he is just happy to be in the garage and will behave, Essa, well only the day will tell.
I am feeling really restless. I don't know if it is because of the storm, being locked up with Freddie and Jacob, Lisa not being here, my parents being where they are or no Effexor. Probably all of the above. I can hear the wind really starting to whip up. It's been so long since I have been through a hurricane that hit us. I mean we've had glancing blows and a tropical depression set up on top of us, but no hurricane. It bring back memories of Alicia and the long night that was. I remember my mom makingme sleep in the guest room, the water coming in the weep holes, the tornado that came through the neighborhood. Maybe I am worried about what I can't see. It is scary not really knowing what happens in this home that we now live in. I don't know how deep it floods, how long the power will be out, how long until we know the damage that is sure to come to the area.
After I get off Gaia, I am going to go look at my books and hopefully find one that will be a good read. I've written to my friend in England and let him know what's going on and I was happy that he is concerned about me and my family. A lady on my guild left me a kind note on my thread and it gave me some comfort. Other friends have let me know they are thinking of me and that was good to my heart.
Well I am going to cruise Gaia for awhile and then who knows. Hercules is already making me nuts. I swear he is so not going out.
