    Hurricane Rita

    Anyone else from the Houston area?

    I'm safe in Austin, but my mom and bro are evacuating. So are all my friends. Scary shit...

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Yeah, apparently EVERYONE is evacuating either tonight, or at some ungodly time early tomorrow morning. I've been trying to keep up with this. Looks like they've upped it to a category 5 (or are about to).

    Also, my cellphone won't work b/c of this. Must be because the service is so busy.

    I can't believe there's actually idiots still in Houston that think the warnings are just a "bluff". My sister's friend's family is staying there because her uncle told her to. The uncle thinks the government's trying to scare everyone.

    That's what I thought too, seeing as they upped it to a category 5 and then dropped it back down to a category 4. Like they were saying "It's a fucking hurricane people! GET THE FUCK OUT!" Just scare tactics? Who knows.

    I have friends still in Houston, but I have family and other friends that have evacuated. Took them 13 hours to go from Houston as far as San Antonio (which is usually a 3 hour drive). Also, the wait for gas was long, b/c of some shortage or something.

    Glad it wasn't as strong as it could have been.
