Fuck you Irene.

My grandmother (old, mobility/hearing issues, mild memory problems, and also an all around personality disordered hard to deal with jerkface) was in Fleischman's in the Catskills, where there was a lot of flooding. Her motel is "gone", as she put it (EDIT: no seriously this thing is floating down main street it is not even attached to the ground anymore), and she was evacuated to somewhere arts and cultural. As of my mom's last text "Gran evac'd to music conservatory nr ski resort so much higher ground. She is laying down talking to a friend, okay for now". However, the roads are flooded so we have no idea when or how she's going to get out.

My parents' current plan to throw my autistic brother in the trunkbackseat and drive up there (15 hours from Knoxville, TN) as soon as the roads are clear, since renting a car after flying into LaGuardia is going to be next to impossible. I'm on standby to catch a plane to LGA, if needed, and take care of my brother at her apartment while my parents take care of Grandma. We're not worried about her safety, more the mechanics of getting her back to her apartment in Queens. If she'd just stayed in the city this summer like we all told her to this would not have happened.

If anyone has any ideas, resources, cars, or psychic powers that might help us out, it would be deeply appreciated.

And Byrne's been trying to figure out WTF happened last night while he was being M-U'd. :| Whatever they do, mission or basement or whatever, he's going to be pestering Badd about it. Basement sounds just as fun, though Byrne still needs a weapon...

[seiberwing.livejournal.com]

Badd's got a gun and ten bullets due to his medical compliance, if Byrne really needs the paper cutter.

But I do want, at some point, to see Badd delivering a rage-filled smackdown on something menacing Byrne.

Okay cool \o/

Oh god yes me too. Extra points if Byrne gets hurt anyway before Badd can deliver Angry Boyfriend Justice upon the monster that harmed him!

I have this image of Badd standing with paper cutter in one hand and gun in the other with Byrne behind him clutching a bleeding arm.

... We must make this happen. We MUST.

Actually, uh, bee tee dubs...

Badd pulled an SC tonight.

[seiberwing.livejournal.com]

Well, technically one of my characters did. I'm really wondering how Carter might fare.

[ginga270.livejournal.com]

Oh man. Have you chosen which character you're gonna do for the SC yet? If you have and it's Badd, would having Byrne run into him be a good idea...? Or would it cause too much trauma?

[seiberwing.livejournal.com]

Probably too much too soon, I think.

That's what I was thinking. Alrighty, then Byrne will spend the night looking for him but won't find him. ...It's like the reverse situation of last NS.
