Preparation

In light of approaching hurricane Ivan, we spent the day preparing to evacuate. The first part of the day was spent boarding up the house and moving things from outside into the garage, like potted plants.

I also took my scrapbook and a box of photographs, and some small electronic items. I spent the late evening folding and packing my clothes. ‘Luckily,’ I don’t have many.

I had planned a nice little summary of my month of jury duty at Orleans Criminal District Court but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm. I [...]
