Lovely Rita

Yet another monster is in the Gulf. Sounds like no one is taking chances with this one. I'm sure there'll be some who'll try to ride it out, but I've been watching as those unable to leave on their own are being loaded on buses (psst Nagin and Blanco... watch and learn.... this is the way you should've done it). My heart goes out especially for those who are still at the Astrodome.

AND ITS THE FIRST DAY OF FALL!! My absolute favorite time of the year. I've been noticing the subtle changes in the leaves, but the weather is still really warm.

oh, and the Red Sox just fell out of first place. dern.
