Here, from Gothopia Weather Station Alpha. . .

Jeanne is, in fact, coming right for us.  Things should be sane by dinnertime, since it's tracking at 12mph, rather than moping along like Frances was.  As of 9am, the storm was downgraded from Cat2 to Cat1.

The branches that were cracked by the last storm are down next to our house, but missed everything but the ground, so that's a plus.  We've had a handful of power flickers, totalling maybe 30 seconds of being without power, since 5:30 this morning.  When I was at Casa De Westphal, it looked like something similar had happened there (power on, clocks blinking).

Just talked to Bob via his cell phone.  They're steaming ENE somewhere in the waters between FL anc Cuba, on their way towards Miami.  "It's really rainy and windy here," he said.

Aren't you thrilled to have given up snowstorms for this? (:

Hey, I like wind and rain when it's 75 degrees, so I'm totally into this. Sure, the power fluctuations are annoying, but this isn't any worse than my apartment in rural PA was. :-)

It's just the matter of making sure debris doesn't land on anything expensive I own that's tricky. . .

... so I see you are hunkered down. Are you prepared? Do you have everything on the checklist enough alcohol on hand? ^_~

I'm not sure we have enough booze, actually. We probably do. Heh.

Kim's playing Gauntlet. I'm about to fire up FarCry in God Mode just so I can finally finish the darn thing.

Just save the booze for when the power flicks out and you can't play the games anymore. (:

Classic NES Gauntlet?? That's the best Gauntlet they made... none of this Legends stuff.

BTW~ I got photos all set to sail your way. I just need to make a stop at the post orifice some day.

No, this is Gauntlet: Dark Legacy for the xbox.

Photos? Oooooooohhhhh.
