What southern Florida is talking about this week:
Stocking up for hurricane season.
It's a thing people do around here, although, since the last storm that hit this area was back in 2005, it's not necessarily something that they do well. And since it's only MY third cycle with nary a hurricane experience of my own, I'm probably not doing it well either.
But ... there is back-up alcohol, and there are plenty of extra cases of water and flavored water and fizzy water, and a few spare cans of tuna and now, after this week's shopping trip, an emergency can of spam WITH BACON!
So, depending on how the "cold blob" affects things (see link below/to follow for the definition of that scientific meteorological term), this can will get cracked open no later than December 1 (a day after the season ends). Unless Earl, Fiona, Gaston, Hermine, Ian, Julia, Karl, Lisa, Matthew, Nicole, Paula, Richard, Shary, Tobias, Virginie or Walter have something to say about it.
