In addition to the fact that there is poo in the Corpus Christi water supply and our municipality is apparently unable to provide us with potable water, there's a tropical storm headed this way so local grocery stores look like those old news clips from Soviet Russia with long lines out the door and scuffles in the water aisle. I officially live in a third world country.

Worse than that, we have a bout on Friday and I really don't want it to get canceled because it's a back-to-school bout and my team's uniforms are plaid skirts and knee-high white socks - yeah, after 4 or 5 bouts, I've finally got the opportunity to wear a schoolgirl outfit and I don't want it ruined by the damn hurricane season. I mean, hi, I'm thirty-mumble years old, how many opportunities do I have to dress like this? (not many, since I'm not a stripper or Japanese car show model).
