Student Life...Again

So I'm back in the full swing of work, school and dance. I don't want to be here, I want to go home and back to my real job. Don't get me wrong, working at the bar makes it VERY hard to go back to a 9-5. When you make enough money to go home for the month in 3 days, it's hard to say no, but it screws up my sleep habits, and makes it hard to talk to Cam.

Hanna gave the compound a little scare, but it turned out to be just like a thunder storm. It was kinda amusing for me from here, the phone calls I mean. Mammacita was worried and didn't know what to expect or to buy. Daddy-o is out on the boat so he can't really give anything but moral support, about the same as me right now....
I was so worried about them, the area is NOT suited for a hurricane of any magnitude to come ashore.

Gustav just gave me alot of rain, and now we've turned our sights to Ike. I'm half hearted about what I want him to do. I don't want this area to get hit by another bad storm, but at the same time I would like the Katrina effects to happen. a friend of mine was at Tulane when Katrina hit and he got to pick the school he went to until they were allowed back. That's what I would like to happen, then I can transfer to school in Va with no problems. And go back to my life.....But in the same instance, I don't want anyone to get hurt or lose thier home. I guess I just want the river to rise and flood school so bad that was can't come back....does that sound horrible?

Storm

The old adage "a storm is brewing" literally came to fruition today.

My frustration, nothing to do and the weather all culminated in a really bad storm today. I almost slapped a new co-worker because of the way she reacted to a simple suggestion. I spent all day (9 hours) working on a slide show I'm showing my boss tomorrow. AND it stormed for the whole afternoon, and isn't supposed to stop until 6am. The storm blew the majority of the limbs out of a tree and on to my neighbor's house, my boyfriend had to walk her dog because she couldn't even open her door to get out.

It looks like a night of pjs and easy dinner time.
