Holy Cow - it's June 1st. Already. Again.
It's hurricane season! And from what I'm hearing they are calling for a rough one - at least 4 storms this year at Cat. 3 level.
Everyone that hears I moved here from Florida makes a crack about it being smart after last years storms, that at least I won't have to worry.
Not WORRY! Are they nuts!!!!! Some of the people I love most in life are down there - I won't be able to get to them, be a safe place for them, know what's REALLY going on. Nope - I don't like that one bit.
Last year, hurricane season was HELL. Pure and simple. Scary for me, scary for my friends, killed my business. Hell. Yeah, that about covers it.
But this year - I'll be up here. I'll have to rely on phones and emails. I hate that. The TV NEVER shows what is really going on. Its usually much worse than anything they show or tell.
So.........you FLORIDA BLOGGERS..........stay on your toes. Get ready NOW. Don't assume it's gonna miss you - remember Charlie last year? Take it seriously.
And let me know if you need anything.....
Hurricane Season - June 1 - Nov. 30.

In other words - don't borrow trouble - wait for it to come to you. *grin*
Posted by: Teresa at June 1, 2005 07:37 AMLord only knows I'm taking it seriously. Holy crap. I'm seriously damaged from last year. If we have another year like last year, I can't imagine how many businesses will close. They're all struggling now as it is... still.
I'm thinking North Dakota sounds really good... other than the fact I can't take the cold...

Posted by: Tammi at June 1, 2005 09:49 PMHey, I'm all over camping. You know damn well that if I could evacuate off this God Forsaken peninsula, next 'cane, and make my way your way, I would. I'm just frickin' stuck here with every other S. Floridian with a damn bulls eye on the top of my house.
