figmentation

ok. hurricane update.
a) we just got power back.. it's been off for about 14 hours.
b) we're all stuck inside still.
c) I'm in pembroke pines riding this thing out. there was no way I was gonna stay in palm beach county. (I know folks who did, and had this been a stronger storm, they'd be uber hurting!!!!)

otherwize,
it's at 7 am est on sept. 5th 2004 it's at 27.3 N and 80.7W winds are maxing at 95 mph and its traveling at a whopping 8 mph. (we'll be here for twenty years at that rate) the whole storm is bigger than the state of texas. or was at one point... it's really kinda crazy. here's a link to an uber cool website about stuff...

anyways, I've been reading a copy of letters to brenda that this hosue owns. they are beyond beautiful and romantic, all of which I will post more in later. hope ya'll are ridin out this storm with decent amounts of sanity.

ps. the topic of younger women and older men... thoughts? feelings??? lemme know!

*edit*
Why is it that we have a moral obligation to be socially acceptiable and pleasing. That the word "Should" exists in our vocabulary? And why do others get ticked off when we don't care about something that they do? Even when we are entirely justified in our choice to not care. Though that choice brings absoluly no social props. or points.
Why does it bother me that I've hurt my friend by being bitter about a certian subject? Bitterness by my choice and my choice alone? Where does he get off on being hurt by it? It's my issue. my delima. if it really is a delima, which to me, it's not. Do I feel that I have an obligation to be pleasing to my friends so that they keep me around?

And in the end, does it matter???

*edit # 2
ok. so the tiff between my friend and I got worked out. he doesn't understand and he's ok with that and I guess I am too... ::shrugs:: it happens likethat sometimes...
