Hey guys, just letting you know that Martyr and I will be starting our evacuation journey in a few hours. We still have to hurricane-proof our apartment (taking everything off the walls, moving all the furniture to a non-windowed corner and covering it with tarp, et cetera) and pack up some food (including that bag of Science Diet that the one member of our home can't live without. I keep telling Martyr 'try this spaghetti, it's good!' but noooo.) and whatever we can fit into my car. Then, hopefully by 1900 tonight, we should be on the road to North Carolina.
Everyone pray for the people in Florida. I keep hearing that this storm is going to be the most powerful one to hit Florida in the past 100 years. Martyr and I are lucky - we have good insurance, and a place to go. A lot of people, especially in Daytona, don't.
So, this is Triggar, signing off pro tempore. We'll get online and keep you guys updated as soon as we can. We expect to be in Charlotte at around 4am tomorrow (Thursday).
Good luck Floridians, and Godspeed!
