Aftermath of Gustav

Turns out that I live just outside the cone of Gustav. We just got tropical storm size wind and rains. I can deal with that. We didn't leave although I was nervous about it because the storm could have shifted, but it didn't. Our power went out for an hour -- that was it. We didn't even have any trees down or anything. I'm very grateful for that. I worried more about Marsha because she does live inside the cone of that storm.

Hurricanes

It's around the same time as Katrina in 2005 and look what's out there coming toward us.


It's Gustav! Right now, it's around Cuba and its got category 4 winds. Who knows what it will be once it reaches the Gulf. And, as with Katrina, my school still has not announced what it will do. I don't know whether to leave now or stay. Oh, and tomorrow is my wedding anniversary.
