The eye should pass by here just off the coast at around 2000 tomorrow night. The storm is so big that we will probably start getting the outer bands (sustained winds 39+ mph) around 2000 tonight and continue until tomorrow night, getting stronger as the eye reaches us. The winds should increase until they are sustained over 75 mph with gusts up to one hundred mph as the eye approaches. My only other hurricane, Isabel in 2003, is going to look like a cake walk compared to this I think.

This thing is HUGE! We started getting wind and rain around 11am today, and we are just below it!

She has been keeping us company during your absence.

Edit: By 'She', I mean your twin of course.

Speaking of which I owe the Dragon a phone call. I think I already have it. I might try to call on the morrow.

In Houston people are actually jealous of your storm. We really need some rain.

Morning, all. Hope everyone is safe on the east coast.

We've been driving southward on the opposite coast, and yesterday took the long stretch of the Pacific Coast Highway past Big Sur, et al. It's a beautiful drive that I would recommend to anyone. There are so many vibrant colors: red and yellow wildflowers, green foliage, blue ocean. It was really staggering.

We spent the night at a historic hotel in Santa Maria. They kept a lot of the 1920s flavor: old fireplaces, wood paneling, antique furnishings, brass railings, even an old-timey ping pong table. The rooms are pretty well updated, though.

Old-timey ping pong? Did it have steam-powered balls?

...and you guys will probably get rain for a while. I think we are supposed to get 12" to 15".

I shouldn't have to worry about the storm surge where I am but I might have to worry about flooding.

The good thing here about the rain is that it should take care of a troublesome fire. The Dismal Swamp has had a long burning fire that has made the air quality here atrocious. The security officers at the entrance to NNSY have been wearing those white filter masks. The masks have been turning visibly black from the filtered particles/smoke.

For now, we just have a stiff breeze with intermittent gusts. The heavy winds starting here at 2000 was a guesstimation on my part. The eye reaching here at 2000 tomorrow is a forecast from the weather channel.

I just hope I don't lose power for an extended period of time. I've pretty much just accepted that I will lose it for at least some time.


Still no changes in his condition.

Everyone have a good weekend.


It appears my guesstimation for the onset of sustained 39+ mph winds was off.

link

For any with an interest, zooming in will show that the area of sustained 39+ mph winds still has a little ways to get to the easily visible Norfolk/Virginia Beach region.

Some serious zooming in is required to find my actual address but it can be done.

Since I expect to lose power, I have decided to lower the temperature in my apartment as much as possible so that its decent insulation can keep it cool longer once power is lost. It is about 65 degrees fahrenheit right now in my apartment and dropping.

Hate coffee.... I see the words but my brain can't make sense of them...

Maybe I can help you make sense of them. Ever since I was a child, the smell of coffee--especially while it is brewing--has made me nauseous. Imagine waking up every morning feeling sick because your parents are making a pot of coffee. That should be enough to instill a lifelong hatred of the stuff. Couple that with the fact that my job requires me to make at least 3 large pots of coffee every morning, which means that I get to feel sick. Every freaking day.

Make sense now?


I hope everyone draws the appropriate lesson from this: brewing Cafe Robusta is child abuse. Stick with Arabica, people.

Went to see Conan tonight. I enjoyed the movie very much. I thought it was an excellent adaptation of the stories.

Minor rant involving rude people:

Spoiler:

But man, I have the worst luck lately when it comes to the people sitting next to me. This time I was unfortunate enough to be seated next to a couple bound for the special hell, the one reserved for those who talk in movie theaters. :/
Is it really so unreasonable to expect my fellow movie viewers to follow basic etiquette like respecting personal space and shutting the hell up while the movie is playing? Really???

Now, now, now. Lets not go excluding anyone. All coffee is equally evil.


LIES and DAMN LIES!


I'm sorry Sensitive Coffee Bean, but you and all your kindred are not welcome anywhere near me. So stay back or I shall do something unexpected.

While you're busy staying far far away from me, if you see any tea just go ahead and grab hold of them. Keep that stuff away from me as well.


good morning everyone,

I hope everyone is save in the storm area

today: serpent skull with my second group

The Exchange

Sheesh, why am I up so early on a Saturday?


Think I'll make some coffee.


And drink it with my beard.


By the way... did I mention that I laid down the new bike last weekend?

Nothing major, was pulling into one of the biker bars that were on our route, (No drinking had been done at this point) and slipped off the narrow concrete path (read: sidewalk) and onto a patch of soft dirt. I had a passenger at the time which threw off my balance a bit and over we went.

She got off safely. But I strained my still injured left knee trying to keep everything upright.

Pain. Cursing. Falling.

No damage done to the bike, but I really hate to think what that knee is going to feel like in 5 years...


Now... on to that coffee.


Brew, coffee, brew.

'Cause that rymes with Grue.

What? It was a spur of the moment kind of thing.


I need a new alias.


What I really need is... inspiration!


No Kingmaker game this week. :-/

Some people feel it's more important to move into a new house. I mean, where are your priorities???

Rise of the Runelords, however is having a special Saturday session!

The weekend shall not be completely Pathfinderless for me.


I think I need to change this avatar, I don't really like being reminded of him when I post...


Awww yeah, baby. Coffee's done. Time to pour a cup of silky dark goodness.


today "royal" wedding here in germany.
the grand-grand-grand-son of the last emperor
His royal highness (that's actually part of his legal name) Georg Friedrich prince of Prussia maries a member of the former ruling family of my county:
Her serene higness, princess sophie of Isenburg and Büdingen
It's live on several TV stations.

The Lords of Isenburg are, even almost 100 years after the end of monarchy, still the most influential and richest family where I live.
They own 4 castles, almost 10% of the county, almost 60% of the forests, several farming estates, a deer farm, an earthenware factory, a stone quarry, 2 nuclear energy equipment companies and of course the local brewery


ups, sorry to interrupt the thulu-blitz

Slurp!

Mmmm, good stuff.

You know what Paizo needs?

A coffee mug!

Hmmm, doesn't cafe.press do mugs? I could get my own personal mug made with Imrijka on it.

Bah. You're German. Which makes you cool in my book. Interrupt as needed.

A man after my own obsession. I have in the neighborhood of 2 dozen coffee mugs.

And I live alone.


It's funny, when I make coffee, I have to go through this whole 'thing' about choosing the right cup for the day.

The Exchange

Of course my favorite is Chaosium's out of print mug with this logo on it.

The Exchange

But I used that one yesterday, so I went with my M16 - .223 Assault Rifle cup today.


I need to do something today. But, what?


To damn hot to do much outside, but with the HD being my only transportation ANY thing I do involves outside and HOT.
