Straight from my journal...

...into my blog. For lack of anything better to write, I'm copying word-for-word what I wrote in my journal tonight.

I can't believe it's September already. The year is going by way too fast. Each day is over before I've had the chance to realize that it's begun, and then the next day arrives. Sometimes I feel like I'm hurling through life full-speed ahead, on an out-of-control rollercoaster. The funny thing is, I'm not really all that busy. Just school and work, and yet I still feel as though I'm gasping for breath.

Today, what was left of Hurricane Ernesto hit us. I worked lunch and didn't even make $40. The power went out at 2 and was still out when I went back at 5. So Tulio decided to be closed tonight, but didn't bother to call and tell anyone, wonderful boss that he is. I didn't even get my paycheck. Guess that'll have to wait until tomorrow. I work all day tomorrow.

It's odd that the power didn't go out at home - but I'm not complaining! I've heard people say we're too dependent on electricity and that people didn't used to have electricity - blah blah blah. But at least that's what they were used to! Maybe I AM spoiled, but I hate being without power. It was horrible after Isabel - no electricity for 8 DAYS!!!

Tomorrow will probably be busy at work. I'm sure that a lot of people will be without electricity and will be going out (to Vinny's!) to eat. I just hope it's not insanely busy and that I can make some money.
