where you can find me...

So, after much turmoil, i have decided thus far to stay here, in Boston. However, that doesn't mean that I am all that happy about it. I have been uncomfortable, uneasy, antsy and wicked emotional. I tend to space out a lot more frequently... and it's just not so great.

I spent a decent about of the day on the computer and watching tv. I decided to take a walk at one point because I was just frustrated with myself and the coverage. Right now, Anderson, my dear Anderson, is reporting from the French Quarter and it seems as though the storm has started to make it's way in.

Depressing to say the least. Right now, the story is about the homeless that are squatting in abandoned buildings and that they may try to ride out the storm. The group called Unity is going through these houses where clearly people are living. It's hard to watch for me because I feel like i can put my self in Unity's eyes... going around looking for folks they know to get them some where safe.

Hospitals right now are also not evacuating. Which i think it crazy, but good. I hope to GOD that they are completely prepared and are ready for anything. Apparently, the children's hospital in NOLA now has a helipad, which they did not have before. They are letting parents to stay at the hospital with the patients and they have a ton of diesel fuel.

That's what I want to see. I want to see just the property damage. In the movie "Low and Behold" the insurance guy makes a big speech about the dream, a HUGE natural disaster with a lot of property damage and no casualties. Sounds silly, but sounds great...

So now, you can find me by any news outlet. I plan on watching this storm, watching the damage and deciding whether I quit my job or not. Sounds a little insane, and i know that, I have been toiling over this in my head for 5 days now. I hope to soon either be comfortable with the decision I made, or strong enough to make a different one.

Keep the city of Nawlin's, Houma, and others in your thoughts. Pray and support those who are down there, the national guard, the NOPD and NOFD, FEMA and the volunteers that they stay safe and strong and make the appropriate decisions. And keep me in your thoughts, if you catch me zoning out, just shake me a little, i'll come back from the place i love.
