It looks like Tropical Storm Edouard will hit Houston tomorrow around lunchtime.
All things considered, I think Edouard hitting Houston is much better than Edouard hitting New Orleans. I think we can take the blow to the chin much easier than they can right now.
Tomorrow should be an interesting day. If past performance is any indicator, the television media will do its best to whip the public into a frenzy of worry and panic. Do we really need 3D spinning storm graphics pounding our TV screens in high definition?
We’ve stocked up on olives, vermouth and vodka – just like we did for Rita a couple years ago.
What are you doing to prepare for the storm?

I’m kind of considering turning off my compy, if that counts. And I’m also taking precautious measures to make sure I do NOT let any hysterical media seep into my house before or during the storm. But that’s about it.
And from now on I’m pretty sure that I’m going to always associate rain storms with martinis.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Yeah, Justine will unplug our computers tomorrow and maybe even turning off the wifi if there’s a lot of lightning.
I’ll be at work in the Chronicle when it hits. Should be fun.
The news never sleeps, right?
Made my lunch for tomorrow, so I don’t have to go out at noontime.
Though, if they sane-up at work, they’ll let the work force (that usually gets off at 3:30) leave around lunch time.
