I got fwooded!

So yeah, in case you're wondering why I'm posting so late -- I'm an insomniac, oh and my county is in a "state of emergency" and the national guard's going around checking on everyone. Also, for those of you keeping score at home, yes that news story refers to my county as "Foyd" county. No dice -- its actually *Floyd*.

So yeah, its been an eventful 24 hours, especially after numbing my brain by sticking lidocaine patches all over my head going to my rotation yesterday. We'd all obviously be better off doing paid internships, especially dirtpoor me. I know that in other blog posts I referred to myself as simply "broke," but today I'm going to have to upgrade to "flatass broke" because I didn't get to work at the K as I assumed I would, due to the multiple mudslides and the fact that I drive a lowrider and not a helicopter. The real unholy boot to the nuts is that my preceptor's wif took off for Haiti and not only does she have running water, power and all those things in Haiti -- but she has 3G internet access on her blackberry basically everywhere she goes. I don't get a single bar at my house, and earlier I didn't even have running water and power.

For those of you interested in seeing pictures of the post-flood neighborhood -- you should check out the 20+ pictures I posted to my facebook, including one of the 4 ft high, two-lane spanning mudslide that basically stranded my fat ass at home to eat room temperature poptarts, beanie weenies, and spam all day.

I love how when the shit hits the fan and there's no power, internet, TV, roads, etc. that you have to rely on 23rd-hand gossip for your information. By far the best rumor I heard today was that "apparently only six employees could make it to work at the Wal-Mart today -- three managers and three reg'lar employees." To which I replied "SHUT THE GODDAMN STATE DOWN!" Haha, its not only sad that someone cared enough about Wal-Mart to make up a rumor about how many employees made it to work at Wal-Mart, but then someone cared enough to repeat it, too. Priceless.

Today's current event

Yes, a concerned mom got back at her kid's "rival" by posting a sex ad on Craigslist for her rival's mother -- sending all kinds of creeps to her doorstop looking for a rumble in the Bronx Bedroom.

Today's awesome content is truly as old as the internet, but still classic. This is a scan from a strategy guide for DOOM -- an old-school shooter. Yep, thanks for telling me to shoot at the bastard till he dies, I'm an instant pro, right?
