NO FISHING
CRAP!!
Looks like Katrina killed all the fish...er...at least the fishing, anyway. I was really looking forward to that trip, since I've never been deep-sea fishing before. Oh, well...small complaint compared to the real complaints of people who suffered REAL problems at Katrina's hand...
On the bright side, I won't be spending the hundreds of dollars that trip would've cost at this time. Now I don't have to cancel that XBOX 360 order ;-).
...
Chad sent me some aerial photos of his apartment complex and car (amazing what a satellite photo can reveal). Hopefully, it's in one piece, dry, and hasn't been broken into... I'll try to post a section of the picture soon...it's kinda cool...
...
Sharonimo (Sharon, Stacey's sis...) arrived yesterday for her 3rd visit this year. Wow. Lots of driving time from Minnesota to here. Stacey's parents are due on the 9th, but their trip may be postponed if we're still having a gas shortage. Maybe that's a good thing...maybe not...either way, I'm actually looking forward to seeing them...especially so they can meet their grandchildren.
Speaking of gas shortages, why is "premium" all they have left at some stations. Okay, logic would say it's because people would prefer to buy the cheap gas first, and it just ran out. Duh.
But hear me out: The Cowboy's near me got a tanker truck of gas in last night, and...voila!...only a truckload of premium gas. Is it a conspiracy? Heh... People are desperate for gas...any gas...so I wonder if some of these oil companies are finding a loophole around price gouging laws...simply by delivering only premium to gas stations that have run out...
Hmmm...
Okay, sorry...it's late, I'm tired...and I was trying to think of something cool and thought-provoking to blog about, but it didn't work.
GOO!!!!
ZOWEEE!!
Okay, that's it...bedtime...before I get stupid. Crap. Too late.

Wow...I'm so callous, talking about spending $$ on an XBOX while crap's happening in the world. I know Stacey and I will be donating some of my fishing trip money to the relief efforts.
Let me try to be more sensitive in the future...sheesh...
