Irene, You Crazy.

Hey, Mother Nature. You got some beef with the East Coast?

Well, I kinda love you but you made it hard to do this week.

First an earthquake and then a hurricane?

I shouldn't complain. We didn't get hurt and our families are safe.

And now we have pre-made water bottles thanks to me filling every single one we own. 

And cookies from my mother-in-law.

And chile verde from my pop.

Some were not so lucky though.

My heart goes out to those who Irene hit hard.
