I feel sort of weird that I never really blogged about Hurricane Irene. I know in the grand scheme of things it ended up being a pretty non-event in NYC (not so in other parts of the northeast, of course), but leading up to the storm, it was a pretty big deal. And especially for me, as Elliott was stuck in Little Rock (no flights in, few flights out), and it was just Desmond and me (and thankfully, Julie) holding down the fort (or battening down the hatches). The anticipation was scary, the not knowing what would actually happen. Julie and I spent all of Friday afternoon looking for flashlights in Williamsburg (they were all sold out, everywhere) and finally just ended up with some candles. We bought bottled water and canned goods, but then realized we needed normal food to eat too, during the storm, if the power didn't go out. I went to the grocery store at least 4 or 5 times, just because I kept feeling unprepared. And I think it was the same for everyone.It was strange to be outside. It felt tense, and it felt balmy. It was the weekend, but we felt like we shouldn't leave the house, just in case. We watched a lot of movies and drank a lot of coffee and mostly just felt nervous.
