Planning for Sandy!

So, not only do I need to fill gas tanks, charge portable DVD players (hey, you try getting stuck with three kids in the dark for days with no media), and, I don’t know, buy more wine, but I also need to finish editing a last-minute short story and send it out before the deadline on the 31st, lest I lose my internet on Monday.

Holy disaster preparedness, Batman!  Oh, the pressure of the perfect storm.  Funny, my fine state had its collective ass kicked by a doozy last Halloween.  We lost power for nine (count ’em, nine) days.   I was ready to string myself up and jump, but it was too dark to find the rope.  Good God, if we have a repeat, I may not be able to survive it.

Okay, enough BS.  I need to go wait in line for gas now.  Good luck and God speed, peeps of the North East!
