apropos of nothing

That Ike was one jive turkey.

It's hilarious / depressing that we got our power back after Ike, but the super rainy storm that came afterwards took it away. I have been losing my mind without any idea of what is going on in the world, but at the same time have been very happy without our TV. We watch too much of it anyway and this has been a nice break. I'll give you a break down of a typical day at the Petty household sans electricity:

Sunrise: wake up
brush teeth
open all of the blinds and shades
boil water to make coffee
have breakfast
play go fish
play more go fish
go fish
trivial pursuit
go fish
go fish
lunch
go fish
go fish
beer drinking and plenty more go fishing
evening walk
dinner
sunset: sleep

Thank you, Ike, for giving me my husband's undivided attention and lots of evening walks.

Storm after Ike, you are a jerk for taking away my hot showers.
