We're all thinking about you, Strife26.

2 dogs and 4 cats here. When I lived on the farm, we had over 20 cats. Every time a bat would fly into our house, it was like Wild fucking Kingdom. I wish I'd had a video camera for some of the acrobatics that went on.

Poor little deflatermouse walked into the wrong fucking bar.

[Strife26]

Ordered to evac. The fish will die as soon as they cut the power. I've set up three lamps and rocks in the tortise cage, so it might keep him warm for a while after the power's gone. The cats and our friends cats have food and water. I won't be on for a while.

I'd ask someone (or anyone) to take control of my charcters in our games. I've got my combat boots and my trench. I found Red Storm Rising and a Desert Storm Bible. I also have Harld a stuffed hedgehog my aunt gave me. I can't find my knife.
I don't know when I'll be back.

[SirHoneyBadger]

Damnit.

That seriously sucks.

[umiman]

Wow, that's a lot of pets.

Good luck!

[Gunner-Chan]

Good luck. That's really all I can say.

Man, why don't I get any awesome disasters? It'd give me something significant and interesting to do, but NOOOOO, I got to live in the safest place in the world.

Obviously, you're under the shadow of some terrible curse.

I've been through a really bad blizzard before. The National Guard was on my streetcorner. I've also been to the site of some bad floods, had some near misses with tornados, and I've been to Centralia, Pennsylvania, where the coal fire is (the town they based 'Silent Hill' on.). I've been inside of a couple of sinkholes before, too. Those are interesting.

Flood's gotta be the worst, though. Kills everything it can (even fish), destroys most everything it can't kill, and stinks, and spreads disease, and makes it hard to even rescue people from. Just miserable.

I really feel for Strife26. I've seen what flooding can do, and it aint pretty.

Hey, Fargo made the front page of Google News. Awesome.

I've been in a flood once, and it was awesome. It was in the middle of WINTER! The water was ankle deep and ICE COLD! The streets were transformed into a knee-deep river of ice and pain!

I will never forget it, like my first love, I'll never forget it.

Bleh, my town is only famous for having the southernmost deposits of glacial till in North America.

Also, one of our cross-country runners got second in nationals last year.

Eh. I prefer blizzards.

Clean, oppressive, and silent. Everything slows down, and slows down, and stops. Then it's just you against the snow. Even if there are other people around you, they seem dreamlike, confined to their own worlds, as you are to yours. You're isolated within yourself, as much as you're isolated from the rest of the world.

I saw Fargo on the news. Lots of people and Students helping out? That seems pretty cool.

Okay, so I knew some sand bag building was going on, but APPARENTLY...MILLIONS of sandbags are involved.

And thousands of people are still adding to the pile. Well. I know Strife won't be around for a while. But heres to you. I hope you and your family come out of everything fine. And more importantly, I hope your house doesn't get ruined...and if you think about it, if it doesn't, then BAM, instant Anti-Zombie Fortress.

[SirHoneyBadger]

I'm gonna try to keep this thread relatively active until Strife26 gets back.

I went for my walk tonight. 2 miles. Not sure I'll do anything else, but atleast I did that.

[Bromor Neckbeard]

Strife, that sucks immeasurably.  Know that (for whatever good it will do) I'm rooting for you.  Sorry about the fish, hope your house doesn't get messed up too badly while you're gone.

I haven't been posting in the topic lately because I've been down with some kind of flu or something since Monday.  My temperature's been around 101, and I've been able to eat maybe one meal a day, so obviously I haven't been able to lift weights OR go running.  I'm starting to feel a little better, though, so maybe by this afternoon I'll be back working out.

Naturally I haven't discussed this much in this topic, because it would make me feel like a bitch, considering how much worse Strife has it.  "So my pets are all going to die and it's possible my house is gonna wash away."  "Oh yeah, well, I have this sinus pressure and a REALLY sore throat, man!"

Edit to respond to SHB's post below:  Really?  I thought exercise was good for your immune system?

[SirHoneyBadger]

Sometimes, a lot of exercise can actually lower your immune system.
