Jumpin Jehozaphat!

Wow has it been a long time since I updated. Thanks to all who checked up on me. Just haven't been in the mood to write-this diary has somewhat lost it's appeal.

I wanted my first entry back to be a recap of the New York trip. Instead, it's going to be about Hurricane Charley. For those of you not watching the news or anything, this bigggggg scary hurricane is headed straight for Tampa(!).

Things Sarah Has to Say About Hurricane Charley.

By: Sarah

1)Charley? Is a fucking idiotic name. Hey, National Hurricane Center-how about Cheryl? Or some other girl's name that starts with C and is not fucking dumb? (No offense to anyone named Charley-except that I don't like the way your name is spelled)

2)MANDATORY!(roar!)evacuations were in effect starting last night, as the news reporters had to drill into our heads over and over and OVER again. This means my aunt, uncle, cousin, Hershey the dog, and Bubble Gum the cat have all taken up residence in our house for a couple of days, as the BRAND STINKIN NEW apartment they moved into a week ago is right near water. Woot-partay.

3)The local media has pounced on this like a hungry puma and has been saying the same thing since last night-this is going to be a storm of The Day After Tomorrow proportions, and you should start praying to whatever you believe in NOW. Because you're going to die. Oh, and also, EVACUATE. NOW DAMNIT!!! They also keep on pointing out that it's Friday the 13th. Ohhhhh! Meanwhile, fast forward to the time when they said we would be getting the worst of the storm, and it has totally gone a different course than they thought it would and it's barely raining here. I'm on my computer-what does that tell you? Although...

4)No one should be surprised by this, because the sameeeeeee shit happens EVERY TIME there's a damn hurricane: NOTHING EVER HAPPENS. EVER. The only time I can remember something other than a few random garbage cans blown out into the middle of the road was Andrew 12 years ago (which they said was going to hit Tampa but destroyed Miami instead). My aunt and I are disappointed, as we were expecting excitement. Alas-nuthin'.

In summation, Charley and News Channel 8 (On Your Side!) are both dumb. They don't have to deal with this crap in New York! Grrr.
