Storm of the century

Ernesto. The storm of the century. Or at least that’s what the news channels wanted us to believe. And it’s hard to blame them since they don’t have any sensational stories to tell us about and scare us with.

The hype was so big that all of the schools in the county closed for today. That includes my place of work. I woke up at 8 am, looked out the window to see that it was just a plain old boring cloudy day.

At around 2 p.m., Josh decided to come over to kill some time since he had the afternoon off. So we went to Blockbuster, rented a couple discs from Arrested Development Season One, we stopped by the liquor store and got some girly drinks and then came home to watch the DVDs.

Finally around 4 the rain came. And it’s been raining non-stop since, but really, we’ve had heavier rain here several days this summer.

I think that the worst of the storm is passing over us right now and it’s just some heavy rain but nothing I haven’t seen before.

Yawn.
