This is shaping up to be a bizarre night...
3am, get woken up by a loud horn. Look outside there is a car full of high school-ish girls yelling and screaming, but I figure they're just lost and being young girls and freaking out. Only then the one keeps yelling "he drove off! he drove off!" The girls get out of the car and start looking at the back passenger side... appeared to be some kind of hit and run. Wondered if I should get dressed and go offer help but a cabbie came along and the police showed up a bit later. I got up for some water then laid down to go back to sleep.
Only then I hear more sirens. Lots more sirens. Way too many for a hit-and-run fender bender. Get up and look out the window- there are all sorts of fire trucks lighting up the street. They are up one block and over what looks like two blocks over from my apartment building. At least 8 fire trucks, then 2 suburbans that say "safety patrol", 2 hazmat trucks, the fire cheif's car and an ambulance. As I watch a police man come and stops traffic in front of my buiding, detouring them around the area. There is lots of black and white smoke in the sky over an area diagonal from my building. And there are hazmat trucks and soemone talking on a megaphone but i can't make out what they are saying. So now I'm wondering what the deal with the hazmats is and am I going to get evacuated? Then the news trucks show up, but oddly left a short time later. Dunno if the police made them move b/c it wasn't like they showed up and the action stopped, the road is still blocked off. Hopped on here to see if any of the news sites had some info, but no. Don't think they're going to evacuate us, but hell if I know what's going on.
And looks like I'm probably not getting back to sleep anytime soon.
Aside from this I've had a good weekend. Went to Dewey beach with Katy today and got some sun... and burned. Not too bad, but worse than I first thought. It's a little uncomfortable but by Tuesday should have faded to a nice tan. Yay! Brynne came up Saturday and we did a lot of drinking. Ouch.
Emailed Chet and told him I can't see him just yet (we were making plans to hang out sometime in mid-June). I told him I need a break for the summer from seeing and talking to him. I really miss him. (I know, I'm a moron) I just gotta figure out if I miss him or if I miss him out of habit or what the fuck I'm doing. This is just really hard... I guess I'm hoping that somehow everything will magically work itself out this summer and after labor day everything will be as it should. Dunno what his take on that will be. But I think it will be good for us to miss each other. We've never gone so long wihtout seeing each other. I dunnooooo.....
As for the other prospect...I gotta say I'm irritated in that department. I'll post the details in a friends-only post.
And that's about it. Guess I'll try and get a little more sleep.
