matrixrefugee: the word 'refugee' in electric green with a background of green matrix code (Merv_Crest)
I knew we were going to get innundated. Female intutition? Laws of cause and effect? Having a former weather-regulator in my headspace? All of the above? We now have over a foot of water on our street and thus the police have blocked it off and have a couple of officers at either side of the flooded area. Doesn't stop idiots from trying to drive through it. Consequently, it's like living on a dead-end street: no traffic. At all.

And there's more rain coming tomorrow and Wednesday. I've got work tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday, and it might be a hassle getting home tomorow, if the river rises more. I'll be calling my mom to see how the situation is before I leave work tomorrow.

Spent most of the day working on beating an MxO chat log from Saturday night into some semblence of a narrative. I've got three-quarters of it done, I'm just tied up with the very involved middle section. I will link it here, this is one of my best bits yet, or at least, my filling in stuff between everyone else's lines is pretty good.

One thing I would love to do, if I ever got permission to write it, is write a licensed novel based on Sieges's story. This is the closest thing I have to doing that, so far, but I'm having a blast with it.

So apparantly, because of the flooding, there was a sewage overflow in Lawrence and Haverill that contaminated the water supply, but somehow the rumor started that there was another spill here in town. Thus, about one this afternoon, right about the same time that the DPW decided to reopen my street, a bunch of people showed up at the store, clamoring for bottled water. The best we could manage were the 24-pack flats of 16 oz. bottles, since we were flat out of the gallon jugs, after the store got slammed yesterday and Sunday.

And my mom wanted to go to Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament at St. Will's, but when we got there, they'd cancelled it since there was water in the basement chapel where they have Exposition. And they couldn't have it upstairs, since the dumb choir was having rehearsal.

::Sighs::

Needless to say, I managed to get the latest fanfiction/RP fiction banged together over here on my MxO faction's messageboard. It's about the eighth post down, but it helps to read the posts above it. WARNING: Contains mild language, pain, moments of freakish humor, more pain, references to vampiric activity, *MORE* pain, mild violence and even more pain. It's also very dark, but the last post of mine ends on a lighter note.

[EDIT: Fixed horribly broken link.]
