Hurricane Sandy – Won’t You Come and Play?

hurricane_sandy

I love hurricanes.  I love playing in hurricanes and doing ridiculous things that I shouldn’t do.  Let’s travel back in time to August 26, 11 when I asked on my blog, “Dear Hurricane Irene, Wanna Party?”  This was my plan:

“Now that I’m older – and slightly wiser, I have decided that I will not spend Hurricane Irene driving around the Fairfax area like an idiot.  Instead, Zack and I are going to stay in and watch a disaster movie marathon in BluRay.”

Well, let’s flash forward a bit toward August 28th, 2011, where I got interviewed on Channel 4 news by Shomari Stone in Alexandria because I did exactly what I said I wasn’t going to do and drove around like an idiot in a hurricane:

Fun fact, Leslie is actually getting married this weekend. Hope Sandy doesn’t bring a down pour… although they say rain on your wedding day is good luck.

So… there’s that.  The fact of the matter is, apparently it is impossible for me to have a hurricane come my way and not do stupid things.  So, I have decided two things:

1.  If this hurricane does cause 1 billion in damage like they say it will, they should rename it Stephanie instead of Sandy.

2.  I am going to have a hurricane party at my house.  This way, at least my stupidity is contained to one area.

PSH! You don’t even look like a hurricane Sandy. What a weak storm system.

What are your plans for hurricane Sandy?

      That is a sad state of affairs when they have less hurricanes in Florida than they do up here. :-P
