Homesick for hurricanes???

This is crazy. I'm crazy. I'm feeling really, really homesick due to watching all the updates on the weather channel about Hurricane Dennis...

Not that I want a hurricane! It's just.... well, it's sort of a "season" for Florida. The air has a slight electric feeling, there's a much different smell of rain in the air, and winds feel like they're coming from some direction that never existed before then.

It's such an interesting event- though stressful and bit panicky. It's sort of a heightened feeling you don't normally get out of living in Florida. Sad, I know. Having the weather channel on in the background, hearing the excitement in the reporters' voices, hearing that music they begin each segment with [insert drum solo here]... it's the only time I really only watch the weather channel. It was bracing for a time where you had no idea what was going to happen. Sometimes it meant packing up and leaving everything behind, along with thousands of other people in some form of mannerly fashion.

Maybe I just need to go jump out of a plane or something.

Here are the blogs from the month of September last year when we went through FOUR of them (all while planning our move to NY)!
