Well, we ended up evacuating. When I woke up this morning, I just didn't feel right staying so close to the storm surge. Blah. I tried to get my mother to come in with us to my aunt & uncle's house, but she refused. I did not want to leave her, but short of konking her on the head and stuffing her into the trunk (which I did not do, FBI search bot), I had to go.
My family's house is far enough into Houston where we shouldn't have any trouble with water (I hope) but we might get some wind. I don't know what will happen at our apartment. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.
But meanwhile, we have been having a blast making fun of reporters, and stupid reporter buzz words. I will soon have a blog post of annoying phrases we never want to hear again. Stay tuned!!
Here are a few pictures of our evacuation and Hurricane party, so far:

I just know I will regret making fun of this later. I am very concerned about the condition of my apartment. This is just a way to keep from thinking about it.
PSA - The media in Houston is ridiculous.
