Hurricane

Well, it's 8:30pm Wednesday night. I just got home from running an errand after dinner, and it's just nuts. Grocery stores are packed with people buying bottled water and canned goods, gas stations are packed with cars overflowing in and out of them, roads are full of crazy drivers....moreso than usual. Everyone is gearing up for Rita when she is supposed to hit Austin on Saturday. She has a direct course for Central Texas (Austin / San Antonio), but not before hitting Houston, Galveston, and down to Brownsville and Corpus. We're in for a doozy of a weekend. I'm glad I mowed the lawn this past Sunday.

Jenn's out now fighting at the H.E.B. to get baby food and water and whatever else we might need. Tomorrow I'm bringing the grill and swing into the garage, and making room in the garage to pull the cars in (which we never do, because the garage is always full of crap.) Battening down the hatches.

So that's what's happening in Austin. Night night.
