smileswhfA work friend from california + spouse are relocating here to louisiana. Like me, they know nothing about hurricanes, even though they got derailed on their road trip here because of katrina. They've been staying in a hotel in houston while they shopped for a house but got kicked out when houston started to evacuate. No big deal. They stayed with me a night then got a hotel room here in BR.
She just called me on the phone to ask if I wanted to go to dinner. Uh, you do know that there is a hurricane coming, right? You know they've got a tornado just an hour away from us, right? Sure, I'd love to go to dinner, you know, if we can drive. And if we still have power. Cause, if this puppy turns east, it's gonna be raining guacamole and we are already on the tornado side of the wind swath. She tells me that they still have errands to run to get extra flashlights and batteries. I tell her she's got a couple of hours but maybe she should hole up after that.
Ok, my natural paranoia is showing.
