We'll be getting our hurricane watch later this afternoon. That will trip some trigger in my brain that makes me want to stock up on potato chips. Odd how that works.
If the storm comes in as a Cat 3, I plan to resort to cannibalism.
UPDATE
Oh boy, Michelle Kosinski's in Ft. Myers to report on the storm. I bet she finds a whole canoeful of cannibals. She's got a nose for news, that girl.
UPDATE II
New-fangled street signs in Clewiston, on Lake Okeechobee.
UPDATE III
We're now under the warning.
I got dibs on that big, fat man who lives down the street.
Why is FOX news showing a split screen with flooding in Broward Co. where in Broward?

Posted by: Donnah at October 22, 2005 01:53 PMI'll let you know if I see her running up and down the drainage ditch on my street with an airboat.
Posted by: Cindy at October 22, 2005 03:24 PMArrrgh! The waiting is killing me! The media hyped this thing as THE WORST STORM EVER!!!! and now it's taking forever to get here. Let's just do it already.
Er, sorry. Too much Weather Channel.
Posted by: Janette at October 22, 2005 07:50 PMOH no this is not good. You mean we have to deal with not only Wilma here in Florida but Michelle Kosinski too? waaa too much,way too much to deal with.
I agree with Janette all this waiting is driving me nuts. I already passed my Hunker Down 101 class last year.
Posted by: Wild Thing at October 22, 2005 10:28 PMThat phrase drove me mad last year. There was no escaping it.
