From May 3, 2004:
And Thursday night I got to have a couple pints at my favorite Irish pub.

Ah, hard cider - one of life's little joys, and my desired celebratory tradition. The entry itself was nothing special, mainly a weekend recap.

A year ago today, I was lamenting the return of Autumn on the calendar without any visible signs of it here in Florida, and in retrospect was only hours from learning that Hurricane Jeanne was headed right for us.

Now, there's Hurricane Rita, who makes Jeanne look like the 95-lb weakling. We're out of harm's way, having gotten nothing from her but 4 inches of rain yesterday, but I'm praying for friends and family in Texas.

Unfortunately I think I can now file this season under Never Challenge "Worse".
