ok well all know how mississippi is gone and Louisanna too. and im sure youre tired of hearing about it.
im not. it still makes me sick.
and we all know how kelly was born in New Orleans and moved to Biloxi which by some weird chance are now destroyed. right when i was getting old enough to travle back with my rents to see where i was born. even i was a baby when i lived there it still cuts deep? my sister told me to shutup that i only lived there for a little while but still. the places where our home videos are from and all of my baby pictures are now gone. Biloxi is destoryed. New Orleans is sinking into the gulf.
i find it all kind of creepy. like first nine eleven. then the tsunami. now this. the big apple was shooken up and now the Big Easy is sinking into the ocean. its kinda like that friggin awesome poem josh wrote. that i adore. and love. i love it.
i watched a about 12 minuets of an interveiw of brett favre talking about his faimly and just the people down there just trying to make it through each day. he made a good point too. there is NOTHING. absolutly nothing. he said his brothers thought maybe the house could stand it but then they realized eight feet of water is getting into their house and they have to swim around to get his three little kids and a ninety year old woman up into the attic before the water gets them. he talked to his wife deanna and she says theyre starving. that they have one loaf of bread and thats it. theyve had it for a couple days and its all they have. they have fifty people (in i think a 25 sqft house with a tree ontop of it) and one loaf of bread. they have no lights and no air conditioning in 110 degree heat. he did make me giggle when he was like at least get genoratores so they can have the fridges on so they could have ...... milk..............or lunchmeat..... or something. i was like classic football player. i love him. and then he said he was like deannna just get on the internet and she was like BRETT THERE IS NOTHING. and he then conitnued on to say what i was thinking, hes said
"people say your brett favre, you have money....so what if you have money, so what if youre known. we can't just walk into a store and say i want first dibs on the peanutbutter and jelly, THERE IS NO STORE."
he then conitnued on to say how he told deanna he would get there however possiable. he said he was gonna rent a truck in tenn. and take supplies down. good luck with that favre. ITS EIGHT FEET OF WATER. but good luck.
so you just figure those are the Favres. they got lucky. how many people werent so lucky? how many people just drowned in their houses because they filled up and they couldnt get out. how many people are dying under wreckage. how many people lived through the worst just to die later of infection or disease or something bc eighty percent of the city is under water. and theres alligators and crocodiles in the water in the streets now. and sharks. and yucky things. and bodies.
my daddy might have to go to Mississippi or Lousianna. just like old times. lol except now theres nothing but water and bodies and more water. i said cool dad take me with you. i would love nothing more than to go down there and just help people however possiable. my mom was like you cant you have school. and i was like mom this kids arent going to have school for a long time let alone ever again if they dont get out from under the wreckage. so i thought it would be cool for my daddy to go but then he said hell probably be gone for six months and thats just not gonna be good for here. call me selfish but we have so much going on in my house with three kids. we have an assistant manager of ritas and high school cheerleader, an eight grader in the high school marching band, and mom who waitresses. but ill send him glady. just jealous i cant help. brett said he cant believe people would scam but him and deanna will gladly give money out and if anyone wants to help them thats cool too. he said usually their foundation goes to kids but now it just goes to whoever needs it. so jealous im not eighteen. id so be there.
i guess all i can do is pray and stuff.
