hurricane

Hurricane Irene is coming and ummmmm it's gonna be like category 1 or 2. And apparently this is the first time in history that transit has been shut down due to something like this (or ever? I don't know).

SO YEAH HOW EXCITING.

My zone isn't an evacuation zone but we live damn close to one, hence my dad's friend and his daughter who live like 20-30 minutes away coming to stay with us tomorrow night.

Us NYers are just not used to serious inclement weather so if it seems like we're being babies, well... that's why.

But it does sound like it could be legitimately dangerous and scary so... I dunno. :/ I hope everyone makes it through all right, especially those closer to the city.

I don't think this has any bearing anyone on my friends list but if it does, good luck. <3

Haha, I think I'm the most calm person in the NYC area right now. I live pretty close to the Brooklyn/Queens border, and like right smack in the middle of that imaginary line, so we're not near any water. The scariest thing around here is the three large graveyards that surround my location.

*snickers* But I watched old ladies fighting on the deli line at the grocery store yesterday. Hilarious. People here are acting like it's the end of the world. ^^;

Wish you luck! =D

OH shit I forgot you lived in NYC! Sorry! That's supposed to be a hot spot or something, no? But it sounds like you didn't get evacuated.

Anyway, good luck!!! <3
