Ahh... I'm glad to know that the folks I was concerned about re: the storm came through it all right. I was confident that everyone would be through it ok, but confirmation eases any remaining worries. :)

Sections of a work by a famed architect that covers the sidewalks of Biscayne Boulevard in downtown Miami have been permanently pulled out by workers to make way for this week's Grand Prix Americas auto race. ( Miami Herald article )

Call on a chemical explosion in Miamisburg Ohio went up, not our usual thing, but I got approval from Kahuna to issue at least a mid-sized warning area. I'm waiting to hear back from the Sgt in charge right now.( Read more... )

okay... it looks like I'm on call all weekend, and tomorrow I report to the Laundromat, because prop2 is AWOL, and I'm shackled to the computer and cell phone for the duration. I clarified that with the Kahuna, who agreed. I'm pretty annoyed because the bed and bathroom have already been stripped down, but you've got to do what you got to do. Still no word on the explosion in Ohio via a yahoo and Google news search.

I have no food of merit in the house, and guess who came skulking around looking for a handout? I told Frankie that my cupboard is bare, and that the mission up the street is open until 7:30 if he'd like to get something to eat. I wonder how long before he comes over asking for me to donate a kidney to him. If he'd come by a moment earlier, I'd have considered giving him a peanut butter bagel. At least I can use being on call as a solid excuse to tell him that the phone is not available to him.

I'd like to go see this movie sometime soon. The Triplets of Bellville Trailer.

Update - 6:29, Prop2 calls me up and claims, "She slept through it". Well, she sure as heck shouldn't be on call if she can sleep through let's see. I beeped her, called her cell, called her landline, plus Kahuna's calls, plus who knows what else. I wonder how much of a mark toward her getting canned this is? She's been there for six or seven years, but seems to have been skating on a *lot* of thin ice.
