Blog: OH SHI- Hurricane Irene

As the title might suggest, I DO happen to live pretty close to where Irene is heading. In fact, I live right in the center of the path. It's yet to hit, though I'll do a post when it does.

Anyone who has been ghost-stalking me (Oddly enough) might realize I've been gone.
But no more! Now I am stronger then ever!
I had been working on a farm, doing farm things (Like chasing sheep.) Along on my travels were Bonnie the fighting sheepdog, Bravo with the power of leaning, Taka with the secret identidy of being batman, Speedy with the power of speed, Pippy the small dog, Buddy the also leaning dog, Meeko with the power of really weird fur, Dakota the wolf, Chelsey the bob-tailed and Odin, with the power of heart.
Okay, the main point of that was to show off how many dogs they had. I mean, really.
I really liked it there though. They had a ton of really old books. I picked up a lovely book about the history of the cold war that was written during the cold war, as well as a book about Russia also from the cold war era. It tries to stay neutral, but it reads really sarcastically.
Also, I found that having a TV isn't good for you. I don't actually have one (Shocking!), and during my stay in Tv land I found that it absorbs you right in.
Of course, all we watched was CNN. I typically like CNN and all, but ALL they were covering was Irene. I get it, it's a hurricane. We should panic (calmly). But they really were over-hyping it. And no, the doomsday scenarios didn't really help.
