i'm pretty sick of hurricanes. mostly i'm just sick of the way they make most people act. i went shopping for the necessary supplies earlier today. Traffic was terrible, and all of the idiots were on the road. It's almost like there are more idiots than puerto ricans... oh wait, most of the idiots ARE puerto ricans... they are so rude. don't get me wrong, there are the few that are awesome people. hell, my best friend is puerto rican but he knows how to act like a human being. stupid people should not be aloud to proliferate. plain and simple. I can't even tell you how many times someone walked right in front of me and took something off the shelf that i was clearly about to choose from. Everyone out there (not just the p.r.'s) is only looking out for themselves, and if everyone would just keep in mind that there ARE other people trying to get food for their families and that they are NOT the only worried about the hurricane, the world be much more calm and less stressful in times of emergency. Well i did manage to buy all the necessary food and supplies for just over $100 dollars. which is fuckin amazing considering how long the list was. what can i say, thrifty shopping is a gift i have. =-)
But yeah, my family is going to be heading to my aunts house in Leesburg which should be far enough out of the way for us not to get killed. If anyone needs me i'll have my cell phone. although that doesn't guarantee that you'll get through because they tell you not to use them during disasters. But it's worth a try.
I'm gonna get a move on and start getting ready for this thing.
May the Lord watch over you and keep you safe.
