So, today was for the most part very uneventful. TS Fay came, and was supposed to run directly over Orlando, Disney, and the area. However, at the last minute it changed direction, and pretty much missed us.
Had it hit us as a hurricane, it would have been my second while living in Florida. Wilma was my first I believe, which did cause the closure of most of Disney's parks.
For the last 24 to 48 hours, it appeared as though, everyone on the face of Florida was freaking out about this storm. Don't get me wrong, its good to treat it like it may be the worst storm ever, in case something freak happens, and it becomes the worst storm ever. You never want to be caught with your pants down (meh).
A lot of people who live in Florida are here for their first time, so this is their first tropical storm. For them, I excuse the excitement and worry. But I had people at work who have lived in Florida for tens of years and called in to work because they felt it was too dangerous to work. Give me a break (no offense). It's a tropical storm, not a hurricane. I have only been through a very limited amount of storms and even i didn't freak out about this storm. :-)
Not a big dealeither way. I mean, you can and should make something like this a fun expierience. Anything in life that makes things more fun and exciting should be welcomed. Just don't let something like this scare you.
Thats all I have to rant about for the day.
