Snowpocalypse '08 is now WINDOCALYPSE '08
Friday, 19 December 2008 17:17Not to be confused with Windocalypse '06, where many people in my area lost power from 3-12 days due to fallen trees.
There is a high wind warning in this area, stating that winds "COULD REACH 50 TO 70 MPH WITH PEAK GUSTS OF 70 TO 90 MPH," a velocity that could easily repeat the windstorm of 2006. This time around, though, there are less trees to worry about since my neighbors chopped down most of the ones on their properties just to be safe.
The Safeway was a zoo. I should have taken a picture -- all the registers were open, and all the lines were blocking any movement at the front of the aisles. I had to go to the back of the store to change aisles and reach the produce department.
And what the hell is with all the drivers around here who insist on tailgating ON ICE? Why don'tcha just come on up to my face and ASK for some hurt? Seriously, at least then we wouldn't have to deal with insurance bullshit. I could just smack ya and get it over with.
Tonight I will be doing some things that I won't be able to should I lose power. Like charging my phone.
Oh, and I disconnected my land line yesterday. Nobody calls it anyway except Blockbuster.
