Crack your cheeks, Irene

The Hurricane was pretty interesting. I wasn't taking it seriously til building management put a note under my door telling me to set aside some emergency water and fill my tub so I can flush my toilet. So, feeling like an ass, I did both those things.

Then I looked around and wondered what would happen if the electricity went off. My response was to go to the freezer, pull out an entire pint of Battenkill Creameries local interpretation of Cookie-Dough Dynamo (which is some really good shit, as they used to say in the 60s), and eat it.

I still feel bloated.

The Hudson has jumped it's banks here in Troy, but it's not much of an issue from where I stand. I'm sure others have a different perspective.
