My sister woke me up this morning at 6 am to tell me that our street was flooded. Somehow without me realizing, it had rained all night. There was even thunder and lightening which had escaped my notice. Most of the bayous overflowed their banks, and Southwest Houston like always got hit the hardest.
I live in North Houston which didn't get hit too hard, but there was enough water on the streets that I couldn't go into work today. That pisses me off because now I have to make up those hours. On top of that my left hand hurts something fierce. I think I have arthritis. It's a dull ache that spread from my wrist to my thumb. It's difficult to open and close it. I'm a shelver so I need the hand to work. That's the only good thing about me not going to work; hopefully the rest will give my hand time to get better.
Now from the depressing to the pathetically sad. I never watched this show as I avoid mostly all cable news programs, but I saw this on youtube. Connie Chung and Maury Pauvich have (or rather they had as they were recently canceled) a program together, you know when he's not busy cheating on her or so it's alleged. Well, they just aired the last show and for some unknown reason Connie, who up till now and will never be again was a serious newscaster, decided to act a fool. I get the feeling that her co-workers must hate her. Why else would they let her make a fool out of herself. It's almost too painful to watch -- painful but funny.
