Just when I thought all I had to worry about when I woke up was Houston..... NOW its supposed to hit La too?!?!?! Lovely.... Even though techniquely its going up over Shreveport and shes in Baton Rouge.... They're still supposed to get a tropical storm there.... Darnit.... But by the time it gets to Dallas, it might be a tropical storm or a low pressure system.... Thatd be good news for a bunch of people.... Esp since a lot of people I know from Houston went to Dallas... I did hear on the news that they're thinking maybe be the time it hits Houston it could be a cat 2 or 3.... Since Houston seems to be not taking the brunt of the storm like everyone thought... Its still major but not as bad as predicted... I can live with that.....
I was going to blog again last night but I got distracted.... And no not in 'that' way.... Would have been a nice change though.... Wound up in some guy from Kenya's room (he's not really attractive and very happily married with kids - makes me wonder how he can be here....), drank some really strong tea... Reminds me I need to return his mug to him.... I learned that chai was swahili for tea.... I didn't have my cell on me so I started freaking a lil after an hour over there... (I'd taken it everywhere all night since I was expecting calls, callbacks from people I know in Houston and leaving Houston - story on that next....) Came back, remembered I left my door open, closed it.... Watched Fever Pitch (which has finished while I was gone...).
Ok so... I wasn't really freaking out about the hurricane much yesterday... Not till I talked to Mom about 6 ish.... I called the house instead of her cell cuz I'd heard cells were being POS s... So I got her but she was very staticey, and she was beyond stressed.... Thats what got me worried and freaking out big time... I went out on the front porch and smoked.... I was going to quit yesterday since I only had one more but I later went out and got another pack... I stress I smoke.... And I didn't really smoke when I got here.... Maybe one when I was out, whatever....
ANYWAY... So I was on the way to the front porch and B called me to check in from Abilene.... He said his cell wouldn't work and he was calling from his Aunt's land line... He told me to try his cell first and that number if his cell didn't work if i needed to get a hold of him for any reason.... So after I freaked out with Torie and Jess on the front porch (Torie's from Dallas) and run to Dodges for another pack.... Torie and I both agreed it was gonna be a long night.... So I get back and I'm damn near a panic attack, so I go out to have another cig... I did this alot last night..... A pack has 20 and I'm about 3/4 ths done.... Before 11 pm.... Though I did give one to Betsa, who asked to bum one and actually calmed me down alot.... Just talking.... I guess since I couldn't really talk to anyone from home, a willing ear is all it took.... Then I made Sirena hear it all too.... I have to thank Dane though next time I see him... He made me forget everything for a minute or too with all that fake stalker talk..... That was probably the first time I smiled all night.... Really smiled... Not just a grimace to show people I was ok when i really wasn't.... So yeah anyway.... During one of my earlier trips, though Nate called from Flower Mound.... He said it was the first time he'd been able to get through... He, his mom, and Ra were all settled into Ra's mom's house just fine.... I was sitting on the porch at the time and I just started crying.... I was just so damn happy to hear from anyone I cared about at that point.... So then Cayenne and Sirena and I were in the hallway later and talking about girly stuff.... Carla came over and I followed her and Sirena over the the Kenyan guy's room.... I still can't say his name.... anyway so I had that tea with a lot of milk added in and a piece of bread forced on me (I was being polite so I took them and tried to eat/drink them.... I ate the bread but I felt like hurling afterward, my stomach is affected by my emotions to the extreme.... ). So I came back to my room after that and watched Fever Pitch (finally all the way through). Though I did stop it once or twice to go have another cigerette.... During one of my breaks Seany called to check in from Norman.... He and Lori were fine at her sister's house there... I immediately called Nate and B to let them know cuz he hadn't been able to get through to anyone but me yet.... During another one of my breaks, I happened to glance up at one of the window's and I got a nice lil sight.... Waist to shoulders only but very nice nonetheless.... And if its who I thought it was, then he's definately NOT one of those looks muscular with a shirt on but then takes it off and you're like PUT IT BACK ON!!!! types.... :0) It was a nice end to a very stressful night.... so yeah now I'm going to try to eat some lunch.... laters....
