part of my town is underwater.
the delaware river overflowed. i haven't seen any of it, but my mom's friend was here before, her house (and others along river rd.) had to be evacuated. some guy in a fricking kayak had to come and pick her up...luckily she'd parked her car outside of the borough the night before.
last night there were helicopters and search lights (which i'd naturally assumed were advertising a Grand Opening of some sort...). then i found out today. http://weather.yahoo.com/storm/USPA1276.html
i want to help...i'm not sure where to go or what to do. i guess i'll see if i can get in touch with the red cross or whatever...it's only 3 miles away. it didn't even rain that much yesterday!! i think the river just got filled up somewhere up north and ran until there was nowhere to go. the bridges here, trenton, washington crossing and new hope are UNDERWATER! at least it crested, finally.
so, i'm listening to the streets right now...having mad side effects from this new medicine... my skin is on fire, my tongue is huge and sandpapery, and my sinuses burn. headache. ears are red. i moved furniture today, i kept having trouble breathing. got rid of that sad excuse for a sofa, the kitchen table i used as a desk, the green chair that "my fat ass" broke...uh...other chairs, that dresser...good as new...i got it from the trash myself, lol...the fake leather desk chair that tony brought...i remember the night he wheeled it underneath the balcony with a used wastebasket and a few candles. i came down and sat on it and lit a candle, smoked, talked to tony, and kenny the dealer who never said a word. i felt like a queen.
wow, this snow patrol song reminds me of the psychadelic furs (love spit love). i miss that shit, like echo and the bunnymen...siouxie...concrete blonde....and then madonna came out and all my friends in 3rd grade were wearing fishnetted clothing and big cross earrings and amorphous hair bows...lol...who knew.
well, g'nite...hope yardley doesn't sink. i hope everyone's ok. i dunno what's been lost or how shitty it is, but i hope those folks can go home soon.
oh...get this...the last flood was 27 years ago. i am 27 years old. ok, big f-ing deal...but c'mon, it's a little weird, right??? this sounds like something out of Everything is Illuminated. (awesome book.)
