It is FLOODING is the MOUNTAINS! the creek near my apartment block broke it’s banks and carried off one can and our trash dumpster!
I decided to move my car before anything bad could happen to it, I got it to the Food Lion parking lot with some luck and a little determination. Then I had to walk back. The water was waist deep and cold as hell. My phone got ruined in the process and I had to rely on my friends online to call my mom so she would not worry about me.
I am not afraid to admit that I was scared as hell for a while. Water crept in under the door and got the kitchen floor wet, the back is still dry and water is coming up my bathtub drain. It looks like the worst is over, The water looks like it is starting to recede and hopefully be at a safer level by the morning. I am going to have a fucking adventure getting to work tomorrow. Class will most likely be canceled but I still will expected to be there and I need the damn money.
The only thing that worries me now is my car. It was giving me a battery warning flash on the way out to safety. And, when I open the door to get in the floor board got quite a bit of water in it. I think it should be fine and I can vacuum the water out. It has probably ruined some things like Scape’s comic I have yet to give him, but that can be replaced.
I felt the angry hand of God tonight. I saw the scariest side of Mother Nature. I admit, I was scared. But now, I am glad that the damage was so light and that normality will come with the dawn.
I can’t wait til I get my place on the hill. No roommate, no floods, just peace and quiet.
