I am putting some railroad ties across my yard to hopefully keep the patio from get inundated with water like it did last time it poured rain. I am scared if water backs up there any worse than it has been recently it will get in the bottom of the hot tub and my back yard will look like July 4th right before the house burns down.

I will invent a time machine, go back in time a few years, convince my past self to move from raleigh to virginia, and then move to upstate NY in order to avoid the bad weather.

I'll check back later...

maybe i'll just drink and crash on her couch...skip the pizza.

^^high proof liquor and very little pizza and it'll be fine. it's not really "negating" it if you've eaten better every other night except one

i have 2 shelves in my laundry room for hurricane/ice storm supplies and they are stocked pretty much year round. i rotate some canned goods out occasionally (when i'm too cheap or lazy to go to the store).

in total i have:
-7 gallons of water
-2 cases of bottled water
-6 cans of tomato soup
-2 cans of other chunky soup (chxn noodle, italian wedding)
-8 cans of various vegetables, mostly legumes
-several MREs
-extra batteries (D, C, AA, AAA, 9V)
-mini fire starter logs

other items i have that would be helpful, but aren't located in the emergency shelves:
-red cross emergency radio w/ weatherbands, tv bands, radio bands, light, cell phone charger, hand crank
-a couple of head lamps
-maglites and camp lanterns
-big gas grill w/ burner and full tank of gas
-chainsaws, axes, pulaski, etc
-canoe with paddles & lifevests

Fumbler made a huge pot of really yummy vegetable beef soup last night too. i also keep large quantities of dog and cat food, and cat litter, on hand too (2 dogs, 3 cats).

I'm going to the bar, which is the same thing I've done every Friday for the past 137 weeks. I'm like the Post Office -- "Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow" -- except for the part where I drink myself retarded instead of performing a service essential to the function of society.

I am preparing by going dove hunting today just in case I'm rained out tomorrow. They're only calling for about an inch around my area.

it sucked, I had 3 homeworks and a quiz on Thursday and had to work Today from 7-4 and was going to go out this weekend but there's a fucking Troppy coming. If it's clear by the game it will all be ok though.

Karmas got to be working my way this week, maybe I should go buy some lottery tickets.
