Hey Rella!

Sorry that I was kinda absent yesterday, but I had some problems to even post on my boards without falling asleep.

**californiabound** · 08-23-2009, 06:57 AM

Don't worry

I know how you feel sometimes

**Aikaterini** · 08-23-2009, 07:22 AM

Life can be really mean, eh?

I hope you're okay though.

**californiabound** · 08-23-2009, 08:10 AM

Yes, life can really that.

I'm okay. Hope your doing okay too

**Aikaterini** · 08-23-2009, 08:24 AM

Yes, I am - sort of.

I don't know if Yvonné has mentioned anything though.

I mean, we seem to have similar problems.

**californiabound** · 08-23-2009, 08:34 AM

No, she hasn't. We should have each other on MSN too

I think I'm getting down with something.

**Aikaterini** · 08-23-2009, 09:46 AM

We definitely should.

It would make things much easier.

Oh no! Not you too!

hi all!

**californiabound** · 08-23-2009, 01:40 PM

Hi.

Kate: I'll send you a pm.

Looks like it

Haven't been feeling well today.

Well we've been bracing for good ol' Hurricane Bill here today. Its not a big ol' hurricane..I think it was category 1? And Well, I guess it will be downgraded to a tropical storm by the time it really reaches this city. But the thunder and lightening has started, and the wind has picked up...should be a very windy and rainy night...

They've actually evacuated people of some low lying towns near the coast of this province since its supposed to get real bad there as it gets closer to high tide.

Anyways...You know, Im constantly amazed at how idiotic people can be. In Nova Scotia today, it was a hurricane, people were advised NOT to go near the shoreline..and what do people do? Go by the shoreline. Im all for wanting to see the waves and such, but damn...like..WTF? Get inside, fools.

Oh wow, NS got a hurrican warning? I did not know that, because my interactive weather channel shows all canadian forecasts, and i must have missed that one. I guess its because i've been by my laptop so much since 2 nights ago when there was a massive tornado warning of Toronto and the areas around it. it got really bad here, power was off for 3.5 hours, but my moms friend who lives like 10 minutes away, her power was off for 10 hours, and it went off at the same time as us. It almost became a repeat of that blackout in 2003. All i remember of that was it was the year of SARS, my mom wasn't able to go to work because the hospital was in quarentine from it and who ever didn't need to be there didn't have to come in for work, and we went groccery shopping at Loblaws when the power went out. I also remember it because it was the concert that the Rolling Stones headlined, but ended up AC DC was the real headliners.

People are people. Tell them there are sharks in the water, they want to go to the beach more. Tell them a hurricane is on its way, the need to go to the beach rises. Its almost as if they think its their last time going to the beach, so they all flock to it. Clearly if us Canadians can survive temperatures as low as -40 C and counting, we should be able to understand we will live to see another beach day if the hurricane category is less then 1.

***Catherine*** · 08-24-2009, 04:56 AM

Yeah, but when you read stories like this, its really sad...that 7yr old's death could have been easily prevented.

It ended up being not such a big deal here..Im not surprised. Dont get me started on how crappy the weather services are for here. At 11pm last night, they still had the same warning that they did in the early morning on The weather Network. You could tell because in the warning it referred to the hurricane in NS in the future tense. Unbelievable.

I kid you not, in the winter, if you turn on The Weather Network, and they say Newfoundland is getting some snow, that "some" snow is 30+cm, and everything will be shut down for the day.

I'll add you as soon as I'm on MSN again. Most likely not tonight though, since I'm basically falling asleep while typing.

**californiabound** · 08-24-2009, 12:13 PM

That's ok.

You should have a good rest tonight

I'm getting a bunch of textures

**Aikaterini** · 08-30-2009, 03:02 PM

Six days without an OT post?! What happened?!
