Post-Katrina #1
1) For those that don’t know, I am alive and physically well, and with MissyG in Orlando, Florida.
2) My apartment is uninhabitable, and will be so for many weeks or months. We lost the majority of our possessions. Luckier than some. Worse than others.
ROSENCRANTZ
…On fortune’s cap we are not the very button.
HAMLET
Nor the soles of her shoe?
ROSENCRANTZ
Neither, my lord.
HAMLET
Then you live about her waist, or in the middle of her favours?
GUILDENSTERN
‘Faith, her privates we.
HAMLET
In the secret parts of fortune? O, most true; she is a strumpet.
3) I am working, but my daily job left for Houston, and when I called them, told me, metaphorically, “Hey! Milt! How ya’ been? We should get together sometime. Uh, don’t call us – we’ll call you. Yoink!!” -click. More on that later. I am unhappy with the Project I am working on “in and around Orlando”, but it’s money, so, I work.
4) MissyG and prissy cat were, for all I knew, missing/dead (or worse) for two days. Yeah, try to cope with THAT. Those were the worst two days of my life, I think.
5) So, I am homeless and have practically no job to go back to. Joy.
6) I am pretty sure I have some low-level of Post-traumatic stress disorder, now. Or maybe I’m Depressed. I’ll have to look it up.
I promise more, later. Tune in again, and you’ll hear the horror stories, the trials and tribulations, most of which my audience is ALSO going through. I realize that I am, by no means, alone in these tragedies, so I’m sure my readers will sympathize. Hey, I even have some good news/stories to temper the bad. Hooray for the Good!
