the rain in spain...

It has been about 14 hours of rain and it sounds like we will have 10 to 14 hours more.

So far there has been flooding near the smaller rivers but nothing near us.

Bill brought out a bunch of DVDs so we have spent the evening watching Firefly. We have watched this series twice before but it is always amusing to rewatch.

The worst wind and rain is supposed to start in about an hour and last through 2-3 am, so we hope to sleep through it. After the storm passes we are supposed to have some nice weather the rest of the week.

This week Pros and Cons:

Pro: Last week of internship
Con: Earthquake hits DC, closes office and move my presentation
Pro: Presentation to COO went well
Con: I won't be here to re-present to CEO, VPs or Board
Pro: Bill leaving even earlier than expected to come fetch me
Con: The reason for Bill leaving early is Hurricane Irene
Pro: Next week should be beautiful for visiting DC
Con: Natural disasters have caused the closing of some of our points of interest

Eye of a hurricane

Listen to yourself churn....

Ok I know I am abusing REM's Lyrics now, but Bill and I are hoping that the eye of Hurricane Irene is far far away from DC this weekend. Yesterday they were predicting Irene would hit the Chesapeake area after hitting the Carolinas. Today they are saying it should be to the east of us but to be prepared for rain rain and a bit of blowing rain. Yay!
