WOW. That was ... an experience to remember. I gotta think of where I want to begin! (how bout the beginning? K! sounds good! Here goes:)
WELL After I posted that last ... well, post, my battery backup shut off 4 more times. After the fourth one I just gave up and decided to watch Adult Swim until the power went out. I'm not really sure what it is about the eletricity around here, but the substations can only reboot themselves twice before the power goes out for an undetermined length of time. So, as I'm watchin Family Guy - the power goes out once. Damn. It's gettin close. It comes back on tho, so I bascially finsih watchin Family Guy, and then go up front to see what the rest of the family was up to. My mom was watchin the news on the little portable TV we have in the kitchen, and my dad was up there ... eh doin stuff I really don't remember but anyways. The power goes out again while I'm up front, then comes back on after about a minute. Both my parents say "One more time!" as the same thought runs thru my mind. Then my dad goes down to the den and starts watchin whatever TV he can before it goes out for the third time. I tell him to turn it to CH 28 (Cartoon Network for us) so we can watch Futurama. Blah, blah, blah. Then, about oh, say, 20 mins into Futurama, its almost over when the cable goes out. "Nooooooooooo!" I whine as my dad flips thru the channels, but alas, the only thing on is the ant race. Not even an entire minute later, the power goes for the third and final time. Damn. We lost power around 11pm. Now what?! We all sat around the kitchen table for a little while ... then I figured I was tired enough to go to bed. We all slept thru the worst of it - and it wasn't even bad enough for us to have to sleep in the hall - which was very good. Thing was - at almsot the last minute, Ivan turned to the right instead of the left, giving Mobile the lighter side of the behemoth and giving Pensacola and the places surrounding the FlorBama area the nasty side. We were really fortunate. I know of atleast 3 tornadoes that tore thru the city - one went thru the park in our neighborhood not even half a mile from our house. Here, I show you, weeth my map:
So ya, thats about the extent of it. And yes, I know Park looks more like Pork ... but its PARK, OK?! ^_^ I rather like my rendition. So there. *hmph*
ANYWAYZ I woke up about 9 am after every one in the entire world called our house .< For some strange reason I had hot chocolate ... *shrugs* it was good, but really would've been better had we some electricity, or had it been winter. I laid in bed a awhile ... listened to some Ayumi Hamasaki ... then me and by bro played a board-type game ... along with my dad we walked down to the park, climbing over fallen trees and avoiding the fallen power lines ... played on the playground equipment, meant for 5-12 ys orld ^_^; ... my bro and I played hackey sac (sorta - we suck XD) ... drove around the neighborhood, looking at the carnage ... played in the street some more ... ate burgers for lunch (cooked outside on the gas grill) ... drove around the city, only one traffic light was on after all the ones we drove thru - went to the highschool, saw some pretty major-not-going-back-to-school-right-away-type-damage - went to the office, some damage to the higher floors, nothing to ours cept some water in the lobby - went to my granmas old house, nothing happened there, drove home ... played in the street again, this time with some neighbor-kids ... walked around ... called Chris ... ate dinner ... decided to take a shower to cool off before it got too dark to see anything ... coming out of the shower (about 6pm) I hear someone makin some loud noise, but I figure its my lil bro whining about something stupid - but then I see the clock in my parents bed room blinking ... WTF ? *gasp* THE POWER IS BACK ON!!!! WEEEEEEE! I was soo glad when I realized the power had come on and it was staying on! I was literally jumping around and yellin quite loudly. I am SO damn glad we weren't going "for weeks without electricity." It hadn't even been 24hrs! *happy sigh* > AND Once I got dressed I hauled my monitor and computer tower out of the closet and plugged her up. I turned on the TV and was amazed that I'd even get the internet! XD And so, here I am. ^_^ All safe, sound and contented ... Hurricane? What hurricane? ^_~
Thanks so very much minna-san for keeping us in your prayers! I love you all ! XD <3 >
Mwuaahahahhaha! After phonin a few of my friends - it appears that I am, so far, the only one with power ^_^ I might have a full house tomorrow !

Congrats on having power... we have a generator running... so it's ok... I live further north than you (around the Auburn/Opelika area) and all we got was a rainy day... enough to get out of school thursday and friday (although I'm sure we could have gone to school and it wouldn't have been a problem. Most people around me have power... the school does... my friends do... but I don't! There's a house down the road with a tree over the lines... I guess they just haven't gotten to it yet, cuz that's what's holdin our power out. Anywho... glad ya made it through. cya.

kewl - its nice to meet people who live near my area! ^_^ We got a lot of rain, most of the city has power now - my school had some damage to an over hang-type thing and some windows blew out of the cafeteria. We got out at 12 on Tuesday XD tho. But we should be going back Monday I think. Thanks for the comment! ^_^
