I'm the only freak in my neighborhood pacing the floor waiting...
All my neighbors lights are out. They could care less about Wilma. They went to bed...to sleep. I'm up watching Donnie Bonaducci or some crap on VH1 and waiting for my windows to start blowing in as described by the nice weatherman on SNN6.
No wonder small animals run from me. I'm a walking bundle of nerves in constant freak mode.

1. You're not the only one scared of this one.
I'm right in its path. :(

2. Man! Me not being in Naples right now is the only thing that
is keeping me from crying like a baby. Hope you will be ok. Are you in a solid place?

3. Yeah
We shuttered up this morning. I can't see outside, but that might be a good thing.

4. Wise thing, boarding up...not us...no one in the entire neighborhood
boarded up. These seniors like to live on the edge.

5. oh relax, have a martini or something to chill. It's not that big a deal..
no one died from the storm when it was MUCH worse in Mexico or Cuba, and you're not going to either, so it will be FINE.

Relax, have a toonie or something, go to bed, let the storm wake you up when it gets noisy, but get some rest in the meantime.

It's not like you can DO anything about it, you know?

6. Nothing like the voice of reason to get me all feeling so
self absorbed. You are right. I love my own drama a tad too much.

7. I'm awake.
Just blew my diet with popcorn. My husband went to bed ... says it'll be OK. I'm a nervous wreck.
