It's raining and windy, but hardly alarming yet. I've made up the futon and it's quite comfortable, so it's hardly a hardship to sleep there tonight - small tv with cable, backup radio and flashlights, catalogs, books, knitting, yeah, I'll be suffering. I am an early riser anyway so I expect that the wind and rain will wake me insanely early when things get lively here. But it's really not that scary/bad, it is what it is. I'm in a well-built, if not post-Andrew-hurricane-code house inland, that's about as good as it gets security-wise. I'll be pretty pissed if I lose any major stuff, but that's what insurance is for, so I can get over that too. Perspective. It's a Good Thing.
