Soggy!!

We’re drying out today. We had…drumroll…20 (that’s 2-0) inches of rain and just when you thought it was over–nope! We had another thunderstorm this morning and it knocked out power from 6:30-10am. Bleh. I’m sooo over hurricane season!! C’mon fall!

I just read that the “Dancing With the Stars” cast was announced on GMA this morning. According to Yahoo!, we’ve got:

Susan Lucci (When did Erica get out of jail?!)
Toni Braxton
Lance Bass (Bet he’ll learn the choreography easily with his NSYNC past!)
Cloris Leachman
Kim Kardashian
Ted McGinley (Was I the ONLY one who watched “Hope and Faith”??)
Brooke Burke
Warren Sapp (??)
Misty May-Treanor (YAY!! I loved her in the Olympics!)
Maurice Green
Rocco DiSpirito (The producers won’t need a food cart anymore…)
Cody Linley

Interesting cast. I’ll definitely be watching. Anyone else with me?

I’ve got an interview up with Amy over at 3 Questions…and Answers. Thank you, Amy!!

Tropical Storm Fay Update:

We’ve had 6 inches of rain, 50 mph wind gusts and my backyard could double as a pond. It’s STILL pouring and if I can get a good pic of the yard, I’ll post it here.

It’s dark and gloomy so I’m reading a grown up book (OMG–something that’s not YA or MG!) and watching Little League.

Tropical Storm Fay is coming

Well, we’re getting ready for Tropical Storm Fay. Ugh. It’s sitting over open water now and is expected to swing back, hit my town and dump up to 12 inches of rain over 48 hours. Eeek. My city floods–big time.

Plus, we seem to lose power easily even though we’re in a big-ish city. When Hurricane Charley (I think…) hit in 2005, we lost power for ten days. TEN. Not fun. Not at all.

So, I’m just hoping the winds aren’t too bad and that the power stays on. Things will heat up tomorrow and kick in on Sat.

Fingers crossed!
