Twitter Updates for 2008-09-12

  • Time for my 8:17 tweet! Had dinner at Chili’s, went to Sam’s and got everything on list but water and D size batteries. Light breeze, nice. #
  • Cantore is in Galveston. That can’t be a good sign… #
  • Oh, yeah, gas prices going way the hell up. Not that you need me to tell you that… #
  • I hate when they speak in absolutes. Telling Galveston they face “certain death” from the hurricane is just challenging ppl to stay. #
  • btw, everything normal here. Girls asleep, boys fighting, dad having a beer and watching TWC. #
  • @PMKU This Ike bidness is so strange. I guess by this time tomorrow we’ll know how bad it may get? RU OK? Roads pretty clear. #
  • They gave us a 100% chance of rain Friday night, with TS winds, which means of course we won’t get a drop now. Damn. #
  • The college kids across the street having a party. Dogs unamused. May be a long night. #
  • We’re to the “honking and yelling” part of the evening’s entertainment. To be 19 again… #
  • @PMKU So at 7:00 AM saturday the center will be at my house. Wow. #
  • @PMKU Luckily, this part of the evening is usually short lived. The puking will start soon. 7:00 AM? I’ll start the weed eater. #
  • I need to get to bed so I can keep up with the kids in the morning. Night all. And BE CAREFUL, @pmku , Ike not to be trifled with. #
  • Before I go? Y’all keep an eye on venezuela. First russian war games, today expel US ambassador. Oil prices go up SOON. #
  • Checking in on all y’all from Houston / Galveston / points wet. We just had donuts. #
  • Politicians. More damaging than a hurricane? Probly. #
  • Gonna brave the grocery store. People here are nuts, you’d think we were expecting an ice storm. We just want milk! #
  • Grocery store was fine. Looks like they had a truckload of bottled water (just in). We’re watching TWC, waiting. #
  • Child reciting Geico commercials. “Fifteen minutes could save you…” #
  • I have a five year old that won’t. shut. up. Anyone need a “helper” for a little while? #
  • And “certain death” is this weeks “storm of the century.” I freakin’ hate media buzzwords. #
  • :waves to Randi: #
  • Already starting to rescue people, and the ctr of the storm is 200 miles from shore. *boggles* #
  • @PMKU ’sup? #
  • @GraceD Yeah, some Texans can be stubborn. #
  • @PMKU If my wife wrote that list I would think she were telling me something. I’m sensitive that way ;) (so I can see his POV) #
  • TWC continues their hurricane porn. Can’t stop watching. Need to go outside and put flower pots away, just in case. #
  • @djuggler Ha! Like back when the max price they could charge was 99 cents because the pump didn’t have extra digits? #
  • Watching idjuts on the seawall in Galveston. Understand hydrodynamics much? #
  • @GraceD Yeah, I mean the guy on the phone at least was inside. They’re showing video of people standing on seawall, watching waves. Dumber. #
  • Party at The Poop Deck, until the cops shut them down. You go, guys. #
  • to go with my last tweet: http://snurl.com/3pqcn [www_txcn_com] (I did say we Texans can be stubborn. Also? Drunks) #
  • @mochamomma Ew. You can sit over THERE. #
  • @GraceD Yes, Galveston is basically a sand bar. With some houses and trees on it. The coastal plain not much higher, up to Houston #
  • BTW, weather update for here (200 miles inland): 84 degrees, 15 mph N. wind, scattered clouds. Kids: Playstation, mom: CNN/TWC, me: Twitter #
  • @GraceD Can’t surf by seawall, nuthin’ but rocks there. Yesterday, I bet they were out. Too rough today. Maybe up ship channel? #
  • @MrsStranahan So easy to do. Also? No pressure, honey. #
  • Hey, Florida, did the water go down over there? I think we’ve got it all down here. #
  • @MrsStranahan I’ve got one, cuz some of those pills are too small for my bifocal eyes. #
  • @bhockeyjesus That’s so cool. #
  • Going to work outside for a bit. Keep it real, yalls. #
  • Okay, 5;20 central. Weather: 91 degrees, light breeze, partly cloudy. Quite nice, actually. Ike’s coming, just not here. #
  • They just showed the Balinese w/ water pouring out the front door. Oops. #
  • Drinking Land Shark Lager. On sale at Sam’s. As my daughter says “FINS TO THE BACK!” #
  • @QueenofSpain We’re inland, and fine. They say TS force winds here at 2:00 AM. I’ll probly sleep through it. #
