Yikes. Trying REALLY hard not to get caught up in all the, 'Frankenstorm' hysteria. It DOES look like the *entire state of Pennsylvania* is going to get clobbered, but, what can I do?
After the week I've had, it's just not IN me to panic.
Pete's in a freakin' tizzy.
We've tons of canned food, can openers, boxed milk - all that sort of stuff. I *do* have to get out and get laundry done and get bottled water - I'm just gonna fill my car with jugs, as the machine is right at the laundrymat. I also want to get some cash, to have on hand. Some cigarettes and matches. A cooler, with ice. Bread, crackers. Maybe a small hibachi. Duct tape and semi-heavy plastic sheeting (watching too much, Dexter) - and Pete has a transistor radio, and a landline for me, as well. Just need batteries.
I took down the metal sun that
gayalithiel bought us, and the ferns, and the lanterns, and got out the ice melt and shovel, and put out the kero containers to fill, in the morning. There is NOTHING I can do about the two dead-ish-looking trees, next to our place - and that is my main worry, really. Got tons of candles, already, and a couple of good flashlights, and even a charger for my iPod that DJ got me - so I can charge it from my car.
After all, if, "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!", I will need the proper soundtrack.
