From south Louisiana...

We would often play mud football during tropical storms. Like nature's slip 'n slide. This one seems super evil though. Let us know if you are in a bad way. I know a few others in the area (Tampa, Orlando, Pensacola) that would help.

We are a community, after all.

"Remember how we said you have no work Thursday and Friday? Yeah... Forget about that. We need you in at 7am." "To do what exactly? Buillding is already prepared for the hurricane. "Just be here." I seriously don't understand my workplace, but I do know that I hate the management. Hopefully the weather isn't too bad on my way too and from work the rest of this week and then I can just kick back and relax (fat chance, Super Anxiety Woman!) and wait for the storm to pass.

Power is out here. No idea when it will be back. Data hardly works, so no more Discord for now. No Wi-Fi, obviously. The transformer on the pole in our back yard is just kind of dangling and being slammed into the pole over and over again... It's awful to hear it. Besides that, everything is fine with us. We hope to have power back by Wednesday.

by this.

Hang on tight!

Well, the power was restored a lot sooner than predicted, so that's awesome. Work starts again tomorrow. Dimitri is being sent away for disaster relief. The only damage was one screen blew out of the lanai. Our house is covered in leaves and dirt. Ew.

Now we get to put every bit of worry on Coraal. My side of Florida got lucky, his didn't.

He's o.k. :)
Spotty power and cell outages here and there today, otherwise he is safe and sound.

Glad you and yours are alright Hael, will pray for Dimitri on disaster relief.

That takes a weight off my chest! We were having a conversation and I didn't get anything back the past few days. I know Tampa tends to flood. I'm glad he's alright. My cellphone was pretty much useless too. Still is a little bit.

Dimitri wanted me to say that they're talking that disaster relief may be in Fort Meyers for two weeks, possibly more... So He's sorry that he may not be able to be IG for a while again. It seems just when we get stuff going something happens in our lives. Lol

Hey everyone! Wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the well wishes and prayers. Came through the storm not losing power once (my neighborhood went underground power lines after the last major storm) and internet was restored today. Cell service is still crap but that's expected considering tower damage. I am glad to see that others affected by Irma also made it through alright. Hael, please send Dimitri my well wishes and a swift recovery while he's helping with disaster relief. Hopefully he will be home again soon.

Special thanks to my Elmer: you sat up with me and talked me through the entire storm and the aftermath, constantly giving me reassurances that everything would be alright. I am SO beyond lucky to have such an amazing, wonderful, and caring person in my life. I will always be beyond grateful and honored that you chose me. Love you so much.

Alright, that's my update. See you all dreaming!

I used to live in an area with underground power. I miss it. The underground power, not the neighborhood. Lol

They keep changing the amount of days. One moment it's a lower number, the next it's a higher number, but I'll tel him. C:

I'm glad all is well with you and thank you so much for the update!

After the weekend I'll be heading out on a road trip for a few days, I'll have my laptop but likely won't be in game too much.
Also was asked to pass it on that poppygirl will also be away for a couple weeks.

You guys living through it is what is most precious to me. Rotate back.

Got a few minutes to myself. Power to the region is being restored slowly. Once they get the grid back up, the curfew can be lifted and civic order restored, then we can rotate back home. It's been relatively quiet other than a few small scale riots at gas stations and someone taking shots at us while we were standing at the command center for briefing the other night. We got power restored to the hotel we've been bunking in, so we have AC and hot showers to return to, but these 14 hour days are draining. I'll be back as soon as I can.

So... I was fired today. Yet again, Hael sightings will be few while I start the ever dreaded job hunt again. Hopefully I can find a job quickly and I can get my life back in order.

Hael won't be in from today to the 12th. Neither will Dimitri. One of the biggest days of our lives is finally going to be here tomorrow and we won't have internet while we're celebrating. C:

You all be good, try not to blow shit up.

I swear the universe is conspiring against my playing UL. My laptop is out of commission for a bit due to my son puking on the keyboard. Hopefully it just needs to dry out, but just in case...I can check PMs regularly, but unless I can steal Arny's laptop, I won't be able to play for a bit.
