Thursdays #20 - Hurricane Watch

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Hurricane Isabel is due to hit the eastern USA by tomorrow. I want to propose a toast, wishing everyone in it's path good luck. I'll be watching the weather channel and thinking of you as you weather the storm. Thoughts and prayers on the way for you all.

Richard, could I have the biggest cherry vanilla coke you can muster up? Oh, and keep the nachos coming . . . it will be a long day tomorrow.

Thanks... have to say, Samantha is NOT looking forward to having to do her business in the hurricane... I have a hard enough time trying to get her to go pee-pee in nice weather!!!

I am requesting somthing non alcoholic because I'm taking vicodin for my back, which, very nicely, went out on Saturday. Perhaps a diet vanilla Pepsi (I'll switch for once). I just had some REALLY disgusting nachos for lunch (school lunch), so I think I'll pass on the food thing! lol

Batten down the hatches on the East Coast!! We'll be thinking of you.

I just discovered our very own bar keep, Richard, is about to become a double pillar!!!

CHEERS!!! RICHARD!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Somehow I don't think Richard will be posting much today. I think he may want to save the 2000 for the first one tomorrow.

Good luck to you on the Eastern seaboard. Fingers and paws crossed that no serious harm comes to you.

As Neil Young would say....


You are like a hurricane,
there's calm in your eyes
and I'm getting blown away
to somewhere safer where the feeling stays...
