Alex needs to leave TEXAS!
My sister Alex is petrified to the point of inaction. My mom lives on the coast, 30 miles away from my sister’s city, and was mandatorily evacuated yesterday morning. Now, my mom and sister, with my 3 BEAUTIFUL nieces, are planning to weather the hurricane in Alex’s boarded up home, stockpiled with food and water. My sister is on her way to San Antonio (without her kids and my mom) to drop off her husband at the airport where he’ll fly off to Iraq. FUCKING A! HE’S THE FUCKING REASON why she can’t leave her small-pissing-fucking-ass town of population 4,000. They’re on a voluntary evacuation and they’re 15 miles from the nearest county which went mandatory evac yesterday!
My sister made a thousand excuses:
- Can’t leave the animals.
- Where would I go?
- We have to take care of the house.
- This city has survived floods before and our part of town was dry.
- There are so many crazy people in those shelters and I dont’ want to expose my kids to that (so expose them to looters, violence, mold, a torn up home, tornadoes?)
- Dan and his mom (who lives in the same pissing-ass city) have been through many hurricanes before, it’s not a big deal…
Turns out that she really wants to leave but has to drop his ass off at the airport and is afraid to go because of his mom’s wrath. She said that she had to tell her husband (really, ask) that if the city goes mandatory evac that she’ll leave. NO SHIT ALEX!! YOU HAD TO TELL HIM THAT?
I don’t know if you’re reading this because you may not have internet at this point (you said they’re taking down the internet posts in her city or something…)
but people in New Orleans said that they could "weather the storm" without REALLY knowing. NOW WE KNOW…
DON’T STAY BIG A! PLEASE?
If I’m making this into a big deal, it’s because it might end up BEING A BIG DEAL
Anyone live in El Paso or another western city in Texas that my mom, 3 kids, sister and a coulple of gerbils can stay?
