Gustav Updates

How is Hurricane Gustav affecting me? It's not. Not at the moment anyway and the time is 11:38 pm. Very windy for sure, but only sprinkles. We've all been keeping a vigilant watch on this storm. The weather channel loop can be repeated by any one of us at any point. I've learned the meteorologists name's and what they wear and how their face expressions change when they get new information and then how incredibly bored they sound when they have repeated the same exact information for the thousandth time just using different adjectives and verbs. 

I took a break from all of that today and spent time battling the stormy seas. I'm told I need to be more friendly with the sun, but I don't play well with others. I fought the ocean and the ocean won. But it was a good, fun, fight. Even if my troops catch crabs and then scream when they move. Or fall down in the strong current and are generous enough to latch on to me and take me down with them. I don't even care if they take unflattering pictures of me and laugh at them later. I spent time with people I've missed and got a taste of home.
