hurricane hoedown, biatch!
category 3 hurricane people. headed directly toward the tampa bay area. time for a hurricane hoedown!
i didn't sleep at all last night because i'm a big anxiety ball. i'm staying here, in a flood zone, with my parents because somehow my mother thinks it's going to be alright. it seems like a lot of our neighbors have the same idea. what is wrong with people?! when they declare a mandatory evacuation, why don't people listen? and why do i have to die for other peoples mistakes?!
i'm being melodramatic, as i've stated in the previous post. but i am genuinely scared. i'm not used to this kind of thing. i've never been through a hurricane before.
i was going to have my dad drop me off at mark's house this morning. mark is alone with his cat and i thought i'd ride it out with them. i figured if i was gonna go out, might as well be with my best friend and a bottle of champagne. but then the crazy winds started getting...well, crazy. and traffic is a mess. i just didn't want to risk my dad getting stuck somewhere with all the traffic and wind and whatnot. so looks like i'm staying put. i'm trying to convince mark to come over to my place just so he won't have to be alone.
my mom's coworker that lives alone on the third floor down the street from us is coming over here in a few. first of all, her roof leaks. second of all, she's pregnant and DUE next week. if i have to deliver a baby in the middle of a hurricane, maybe they'll make a lifetime original movie about me. meredith baxter would be my mom, naturally. it has all the makings of a hit. disaster, death, destruction, new life born out of destruction. we'll call it "the day frankie got blown.......away." i'm just being stupid now. but i was serious about the meredith baxter bit.
