*sigh*

Living on the east coast has always been great, and now all we're hearing about lately are earthquakes and hurricanes.

....Not only do I  have to get family prepared and ready to hunker down, but I have to head off to work, because I am "important" staff (hospitals can't run without nurses, aye?)

I live a good hour from work, and half the drive is wooded, so during the end of Jan and early Feb is when it's usually the most scary to get time to get to work....

We've had hurricane residual up here before, but I think what makes this so different is the fact that the hurricane is coming UP the coast and HITTING it, potentially hard. That's new for us...

I am not so sad about going to work, but I am a bit nervous about driving around all those trees. Really...I've been caught in the trees before during ice storms and it's no fun. Well, I didn't HIT the trees, but I've been caught in traffic behind other cars that have....

East coasters, unless you need to be on the road this weekend, please stay off of it so that people who absolutely need to be on it (like myself) can drive like grannies and still get to and from work at a decent hour (as opposed to everybody being on the road driving like grannies and causing major congestion and more accidents)!
