forest hills meets the frankenstorm

well, according to all news (& non-news) sources, we're pretty f'ed w/ the impending storm -- knee-high floods, uprooted trees, a hanging crane & one crumbled down building.  everything's closed along queens boulevard as far as i can see, except for feng's garden, which happens to serve some of the best chinese food in the neighborhood.  so i've got that going for me, which is nice.

based on OPFBP (other people's facebook pages), electricity is goin' out all over long island, new york city & jersey.  not too comforting a thought, though it is amusing that everyone's updating their statuses about it -- they still have "words for friends" to comfort them for as long as their battery'll allow.

curious to see what'll happen when sandy makes her direct hit on forest hills.  thankfully, so far, just the cable's been on the fritz here & there. i'm hoping that'll be it & things'll be back to normal by halloween.

if i don't post anytime soon, i've either lost electricity or am in the middle of procrastinating.  either way you slice it, here's to us all staying safe & dry.
