Irene

The most frequent question of the day: "Are you glad you moved out of NYC ow that they are getting a hurricane?" I smile and be polite but deep in my heart, I wanna shout NO. No I am not glad, I am actually devastated, am scared, am anxious about the city getting hit. Wherever I am in the world, wherever I end up, I will always think of New York as my hometown, my home, maybe not necessarily where I grew up, but it is the place where I learned about LIFE. I have gotten a lot of messages on Facebook from people who have not realized that I have moved, and are concerned, and wishing me happy thoughts. I can only bite my lips and say thanks. For all intents and purposes, I will be with New York as the eye of Hurricane Irene hits them. On my Direct TV, I can actually get the local NYC stations, and it is small comfort for me that I can watch them.
