Shopping List

If a hurricane happens to be coming your way, here is a list of handy items you should pic up (obviously not in order of importance):

• Water
• Flashlight, preferably one that takes double As because D batteries are more expensive and difficult to come by.
• Big candles, unscented.
• Three books of your choosing. Something Wicked This Way Comes seems appropriate.
• 2 batches of chocolate chip cookies
• Some fruit, but not too much in case it rots early and then you'll have little fruit flies everywhere, and then you'd be stuck with them. 
• Board games. Cranium is my favorite.

This list is obviously comprehensive, seeing as I have impecable planning skills. Don't worry Genevieve, Caity's birthday present is in the mail, I promise. Oh yes, you're supposed to fill your bathtub with water for some reason, so make sure it's clean. I personally plan on taking a shower at the crack of noon when I get up and doing a thorough cleaning of the apartment with my roommate. My money is on the power being out by 2 p.m. tomorrow. Any takers?
