  • Late Night Entertainment

    Tonight, I occupied myself at work by watching Casper's wind speed update.  We had winds between 45-85 mph.  Our gusts easily entered into the categories of a Class 1 hurricane and a F1 tornado.  It was shaking the cars in the parking lot at Wal-mart before I went to work.  You could see the wheels turning just a bit.  I am glad the ice had melted in the lot, otherwise vehicles would have just been sliding along it.

    A large portion of the city was without power.  I don't know why people call 911 when they don't have power, but an incredible number do.  We can't do anything about it.  We aren't the power company.  We don't know when it will be back on.  No, we can't just fix it.  Wait it out or give the power company a call again and harass them.  Especially don't call at 3 am.  What are you doing up?  Get the fuck to bed.  What could you being doing at this time of night except drinking?  You need lights to get drunk?

    Tirade over.

    I finished a post for my learning site.  Up to four days now!  I have to think what to do for today.  That was my night.  Oh, and I ate some Cheez -Its.
