Yes, I have a weather obsession

Hello. My name is Julie and I have an obsession with weather.

[all reply: "Hello Julie!"]

Ok, I admit it, I have an obsession with weather, mostly of the storm variety. I am so distracted this morning with the impending storm (could be from the lack of sleep & 2, 12 hour workdays this week and the fact that Paul is on the other side of the county). We had at least 2 inches of rain at the house yesterday afternoon through last night. (our trashcan was left out with the lid open and it collected a lot of water which had to be dumped this morning - let's just say I wasn't quiet and I'm sure some neighbors were rudely awakened at 6:15am with the lound thuds, grunts and crashing sounds as I attempted to dump it while wearing my work dress clohes )

Well, I have lots of work to do so I need to get to it.

I'm not really sure what to expect today, but I have a feeling it could be something similar to Alberto (see this entry) and I am not thrilled about that possibility. I didn't feel well this morning but knew that I had a ton of work that needs to be completed before we can leave for HAWAII, so I drug myself into the office to now be stressed about getting home, ACK!

Want to read more about our local weather? There's a blog for that. I can read and understand most of it. But personally, I love to stare at the radar on WeatherUnderground. I will be spending a lot of time on there today... although they've added some new annoying rollover ads that drive me crazy.

Oh, and I didn't get to stock to fridge/pantry and my car only has 1/4 tank of gas. I'm just not prepared in the slightest! There is a Harris Teeter right across the street from my office but lord knows that it is going to be a mad house (esp. with the older people variety).

Got to get to work now...
