Dear Mother Nature...what is happening?

So I have heard quite a bit of commentary with regards to this hurricane that is supposed to hit our city today and last for a few days. I am not trying to suggest that our beloved Mother Nature isn't one to contend with...however...I do feel that the level of hysteria is a bit much. Wouldn't you? I even had a friend text me last night saying "if you can, get as far north as you can to avoid the coming hurricane. It's going to get really bad!". LOL!!!! Really? I need to vacate my home and leave my work behind for this? Again....really? Forgive my ignorance...but if it was to present itself as border line catastrophe...wouldn't we have had an evacuation notice? Aside from hearing things from friends and family...I haven't heard anything suggesting this ultimate severity on the news or on TV  Further more, every time the weather people make such statements implying things are going to get bad....it never really does. Forgive me for not taking this seriously. LOL!! I probably just jinxed it and I can see my house crumbling under the torrential down pour. GREAT!!!! Jokes!

How was everyone's weekend? I presume you all had some Halloween festivities to attend to. I went to my dear dear friend's bash and had an absolute blast. I haven't dressed up in costume for 2 years and I really do have a disdain for it but....my girlfriend insisted and I obliged. I have to say...I did do a great job with it too. Got tons of kudos for the outfit. Check it out...

Here's some exciting news; I have a date tonight!!!! Yup...I do!!! It's been a long while since I have gone on a date and it's been a long while since I have been intrigued enough to accept an offer. Let's see how this pans out!!! I am going to wish myself some luck! LOL

Last Friday I took my little nugget to an audition for a play of sorts. It really wasn't a true audition, just an opportunity to meet with the creator/director of the show. He's pretty amazing and I love what he's trying to do. The show is based on a political platform about the United Nations. Rather than each country being represented by a human figure, in this play, each country is represented by a Dachshund. Hopefully one of them will be my dog. The meet/greet/auditions were being held all week. The show isn't till next year March. I am supposed to hear back from the production team either today or tomorrow. Let's cross our fingers.

This week is going to be action packed. I am trying my best to take an over night adventure with my dear Lady friend to Niagara Falls on Saturday. I have it booked off already....hoping that my girlfriend can make it. I could really use an over night of debauchery. LOL!!!

Ok folks....that's all she wrote! xo P
