Happy Halloween to all! It's funny how, as you get older, Halloween just doesn't seem as "special" as it used to. We don't even get very many trick-or-treaters, so blah.

Had a lovely weekend with hubby. We just basically lazed around the house, enjoying each other's company. He was disappointed by his friends on Saturday, which really upset me. He has been planning a camp out for at least three weeks. He had spoken to his friend and left a message for his brother about camping on Saturday night at their usual campsite on hubby's family property. Saturday came, hubby was all excited. He got ready, got supplies and then called before he trekked out there (thank goodness). He was not able to get in touch with anyone at first, except his dad who said he didn't think they were going. WTF?? Finally, he got his friend and yep, the others had decided not to go because of various reasons. Nice of them to let him know, eh? Fuckers. He was so disappointed, my heart just broke for him. They decided to try again next weekend, and I hope he gets to go this time. At least it's supposed to be "warmer" this weekend, in the 50s rather than the 30s.

Because he didn't go camping, I didn't get any work done on my fic. It's too hard for me to write while he's there...he's too distracting.

In other hubby news, he bought the "Resident Evil" game for the PS2. Let me tell you, that game is really scary! Even being in the same room while he played it was freaky. My heart pounded and hubby jumped several times. He really likes the game, but it's so intense, he can only play it for an hour or so before he has to take a break.

Things in South Florida are apparently still pretty bad. The reason there's not much news about it outside of FL is apparently because there's pressure not to make Jeb (the idiot Bush's brother) look bad. WTF? My sister and her family are back in South FL now, have the generator set up and running and are doing as well as can be expected. My son told me his power came back on last week, so he's doing okay. He was able to obtain gas from his job...he works as a security guard, so they need him there. I haven't heard an update yet from my daughter or my brother. I heard through the grapevine that my brother was doing okay, he has a generator. His biggest problem was that there is a gas station literally right behind his back yard, and they got their power back on last week. This caused people to start lining up at like 3am, and the line wound around the block to the street in front of my brother's house. People were trashing the yard, with not only trash, but also peeing there, too. YUCK. But it seems that there are more gas stations with power back now, so that situation should be better.

Work still sucks, I'm just marking the days until I can leave.

My Gandma lives in Palm Beach and got hit by the storm too (just turned 88 on Saturday- she's feisty!). She lost all power and water. She's up living with my Aunt untill things are back to normal. I don't think there was much damage, but still no power or water are pretty major.
