the sometimes senseless ravings (and the occassional rant) of an aspiring marine ecologist who may enjoy killing things a little too much

Can't Sleep

so, hurricane katrina is just starting to make landfall in grand isle, louisiana, and i have been awake since about 4:30 this morning. the winds are very gusty, though not as bad now as they will be around lunchtime. the power is flickering off and on, and i hope that it lasts until daylight, as my dishwasher is running. i think it's about to go out, though. deva is staying with me and chad. she was awake with me earlier, but now she has fallen asleep on the couch again. we are safe and expect to be so for the duration of the storm, although i expect to see much worse wind this afternoon. at least we aren't getting the worst of this.

ok. deva is awake again to keep me company. i promise to post ASAP after the storm with an update.

Hey you two! Glad you're making it through okay. Our pier is completely under water. Take care and I hope to talk to you soon.
