Well damn, i wish i swould have known you were in tow...
we could have set up a 2 peop-le meet lol.

Well its our turn to get facked by mother nature, i live near the med center and ill be on lockdown from tomorrow morning thru Sunday! The wife may be called into duty if the governor calls an EMT alert and my babay will be either in the hospital with me or at my moms house, that is if she doesnt get called in to work. (can ya' feel my excitement)

Sorry about your home, had i known you needed a place to stay and you were in houston i would have ofered what little rom i have. (honestly)

If youll be staying on the "nawf" side then it should be ok for you and your loved ones, just be careful of the wind, but you can practially bet the power will more than likely go out, sorry the local power company sucks a fat one!!

I hope youre not on i-45! that shit is crazy packed, people are sayign the drive from galveston to woodlands could take up to 10-12 hours!! it is usually about a 1 hour drive max!

Ill be packing all of my computers and important documents an taking them with em in my car to work, hopefully ill find a parking spot in the garage!

i wish you luck on he he, so wish me the same!

thanks a lot man it really means a lot to me that that you would help me out like that. i think we will be ok here though. hopefully a tree doesnt fall on my car. i lucked out last time. but man u r talking about water being like gold i also have to add in the fact that all the gas stations are out of gas around here. they are talking about rasing gas to 5 dollars a gallon. thats 100 fucking dollars for a full tank . the places that do have gas left at the normal price have lines out in the street. i almost got into a fight today cause some douch thought he could cut infront of me. he was close to catching a ass whooping kickboxing style . but we went to Sams and walmart and they had no water. but anyway water and gas r definitly hard to come by. everyone is in a panic and this is just a repeat of what happened to me earlier. well esta i hope everything goes smooth for you the only advice i can offer is to get all electronics you want to keep off the first floor onto the second or the attic.
we may be leaving tomorrow and if we do i m goin to take pics of what is left of my house to show u guy what this shit can do. well thanks again guys
Johnny

well I'm the medical center here in Houston, which is about 45 minutes away from Galvestown.

Im at work, have been since 8am this morning, I snuck out to complete packing up my house (what i could pack up out of it) we got a notice of voluntary evacuation yesterday afternoon, so there wasnt much time for anything else to do. We live near Braeswood bayou which is known to flood frequently just not around here. however, since this seems to be a large mo'fo of a hurricane we were notifed of the voluntary evac.

Gas: holy shit no gas around here, I filled up my car, the wifes and my moms car yesterday. There is almost noone left in the city and almost not a soul in my complex lol. My mom is sitting at my bros apt right above mine and is awaiting for me to get off at 8pm to take her to my uncles home in the nawf' side so if anyone has seen the news the drive will be fucktastic!!

As far as my apt; packed as much as we could into an ambulace from the company my wife works for, shes a director os she got to take an ambulace home to keep it safely as the office is in a flood-prone area. I packed EVERYTHING i could then some, baby stuff, wife stuff, my computers are packed, my consoles are packed, dvd's, games, clothes, and there is a lot of stuff left (my 42' tv is still there and if it floods that sucker is GONE )

People are really freaking out :\ , they are predicting 15,20,30 ft. storm surge, almost everything is closed, to find an atm with $ in it is like winning the lottery...

At work, they are telling us that we are allowed to leave as long as we come back lol, all the garages are full, my 2 cars are in them. I plan on leaving, getting some beer after dropping my mom off and having possibly one last night with my couch and TV he he :P

maybe my coworker will come by and kick it with me, since its close to work and all. But looking in the positive side of things, at least the wife is safe, with her pops and her stepmom, both are sheriff deputies, my baby is with her, my mom will be safe with my uncle, and my brother and i will be onsite at the hospital kicking it.. AND at least 85% of myhosue is already packed and ready to mnove into the new home lol!!!

wish me luck!
(needless to sy i might not be posting much in here, especially if the power goes out here in the Data center!)

Pees!
