   Gainesville's anti-hurricane forcefield was malfunctioning...

...at least that's what the DJ said... no that's not a song lyric! They really said that on the radio though and it must be true! Haha, we need to get it fixed now! We've never had a hurricane really hit here, at least not ~exactly~ here for quite a few years. There is soooo much damage! But, anyway, I'm ok and off school for a few days too! YAYA!!

Let me start at the beginning... Friday we brought in everybody's furniture and plants thinking we'd be fine like usual. Saturday it rained a lot, I stayed online most of the day and night, thinking we'd be fine like usual. Sunday...the power went out at 2pm and it's still not back on! Luckily Grace has a generator so we can run some stuff. We even hooked up the TV and computer but at 10pm the cable went out! Waaah! Monday I went to my dad's for dinner and to try and use his computer and while we were eating dinner ~his~ power went out! A tree fell on Tim's house, but it didn't get through the roof thank goodness! Tuesday the roads were a little safer and I went to Christine's where Christopher and I watched about 5 hours worth of Case Closed while Alexis watched Sailor Moon. I'll make anime fans of them yet! Tim's house flooded, 6 inches of water in the house and about 3 feet on the back porch where his drum set and ping pong table were.

Right now we're both at our mom's waiting for her to quit talking to her boyfriend and make us dinner! Two trees fell in mine and Grace's yard, one in the back that's leaning on some power lines and another in the front which actually fell from our yard across the road! It came up by the roots! That one's been cleared but the other one hasn't and I think that may be why the cable's out... There were 4 deaths in Alachua county, but no one I know. I'm sure it's much worse down in south Florida though so I'm just glad I don't live there!

Since the last time I posted I've done so much stuff! Before the power went out I made most of a quiz that I'm hopefully going to submit soon, watched all of the Rayearth OAV (about 2 1/2 hrs) and the first volume of Angelic Layer (4 episodes). Then after it went out I read 2 volumes of Di Gi Charat, and 2 of Tokyo Babylon. Then I completely finished and colored the first picture to go with my story. Unfortunately my mom's stupid scanner is still broken but hopefully I'll be able to use AJ's on Friday! I also submitted my Yugi pic on here and started on one of Anzu for Nick. Since we have no school tomorrow I'm going to babysit him and his brother Matthew in the morning.

Ok, well sorry for the super long post, and that I can't get to anyone's sites today. There won't be any new chapters of my story until I get the power and cable back on at my house though. Sorry about that too, but it does give me a chance to figure some things out b/c the next part might not be as straightforward as you think...

Here's a pic of the boys looking at what Gainesville looks like now!



I'll get back to the Furuba cuties when I get my own computer running again! *hugs everyone* Talk to you soon I hope!
