Rita

So, I left work at 3:45 this morning. WIthout eating dinner. I was hot, tired, and not nearly as hungry as you would imagine for not eating since 1:00 pm. No snack, just water. And then I got two hours of sleep. I'm a tired puppy.

Part of my lack of sleep is due to watching coverage of the major storm, Rita. I'm planning on staying through the storm. Unless I'm forced to leave or something. I won't be stupid about it. I ask for your prayers for everyone down here in the southeast Texas area.

Because of Katrina (imagine, barely three weeks ago, we had a "K" storm, and now we're down to "R" — that's eight storms within a one month time span, assuming that we had "P" and "Q" storms — I don't recall hearing about anything after Ophelia)... anyway, because of Katrina, people are panicing here big time. It seems they're expecting a New Orleans-style catastrophe with this storm. The biggest difference is that we're (slightly) above sea level, and we're not surrounded by levees.

Anyway, again, I ask your prayers.
