the wicked witch and dorothy send their greetings (the im diaries):

Aug 29, 2011 08:06

whee, and a fun time was had by all yesterday...not. Irene came to us as a tropical storm but she wasn't gonna let go without leaving her calling card. Rain, floods, lotsa wind, water spouts, tornado watches and power outages. Last I heard about 600k across Massachusetts with the lights out, I was one of the -very- lucky ones.

Vermont had horrible flash floods, storm related deaths stand at 32 (One of those a surfer who didn't stay out of the water when he was told to...too stupid to live). But all in all, I suppose it could have been much worse.

Thanks to all the people that called to check on me yesterday!

(6 months yesterday since I've played WoW)

[09:15] Witch: it's GORGEOUS here today *snort*
[09:16] Witch: dry, sunny, light breeze, about 70ish
[09:16] MinorMagicProd: a nice respite from the usual, no?
[09:16] Witch: after Irene had her temper tantrum
[09:17] Witch: it was a tropical storm when it hit ny
[09:17] Witch: which saved them a lot of grief as well
[09:17] Witch: but man, she still did a job
[09:17] Witch: what a frickin' mess
[09:18] MinorMagicProd: I believe it. Mother nature seems to delight in reminding us puny humans where we stand on the global scale of things, hmm?
[09:18] Witch: we've forgotten for far too long
[09:19] MinorMagicProd: Which leads me to conclude that mother nature is kind of a bitch.
[09:19] Witch: we need a kick in the pants
[09:19] Witch: but we've gotten a lot of them lately
[09:19] Witch: we've abused her for a long time
[09:19] MinorMagicProd: That's what happens when you give your most destructive children opposable thumbs.
[09:20] Witch: *chuckle*
