fighting the storms

Whew! What a week. And I am not just talking about the hurricane that just barely missed us today. Everyday I hear people saying how much they love this part of Florida. The beaches, the sun, the atmosphere, etc. are all things that people get excited about here in Northwest Florida. However, this is not paradise. Many people think so and that's fine with me, because I would take rainy days and mountains over melt-your-face-off days and fire ant hills any day. But I have not come to the best part yet. That would be the hurricanes. I think when we decided to move here, the people of Northwest Florida just forgot to mention these swirling masses of air that will rip your house into shreds and then rain on the remains just for spite. Either they forgot about telling us or they thought that they would keep it hid from us, until....SURPRISE!!! YOU WIN!!!! AND YOU KNOW WHAT? YOUR PRIZES ARE: NO ELECTRICITY FOR A WEEK, CLEAN-UP IN THE YARD, AND BOARDING UP THE WINDOWS. OH WAIT!!! THERE'S MORE!!! YOU ALSO GET THIS GREAT PRIZE WHERE YOU ARE STUCK IN A DARK HOUSE WITH YOUR FAMILY AND NO HEAT, LONG ENOUGH SO YOU WILL GO CRAZY!!! Even though nothing like that happened this time around, it has happened before and it ain't a pretty sight.

I had to fight more than one storm this week............but I want to see how much Mike will hate me after I leave yet another vague post on blogger. As if he doesn't hate me enough for whipping him good in the new level of SSB. Actually, the other storm was more of a series of conversations with a friend, that I will not mention on this blog because it doesn't really matter (sharing the conversations, that is). What does matter is that everything is fine and I feel much better.

Anyways, I am off to be because I have to weather the storm of returning to school tomorrow. Oh, what I wouldn't give for a hurricane to hit the college......I'm such a kidder.

I wouldn't mind if a hurricane hit UF...hehe... anyway, vagueness isn't always a bad thing. It's kinda like being tactful... but I would not expect tactless Michael to understand such things :)
