With the impending doom of Hurricane Gustav, titled the "mother of all storms" by our "chocolate-city" mayor Ray Nagin, Aleks and I evacuated New Orleans for the second time in 3 years. This time we drove to my parents' place in Madison, MS, and on Saturday and Sunday, we waited for the storm--by the pool. It was harrowing. The water in the pool was placid but chilly, yet we endured. And the hot sun bore down, yet we tanned.
All in all, not a bad way to spend an evacuation.
