Look outside. Beauteous, no? Well, enjoy it. Because come late tonight, all of us East Coast Elites are sure to feel the wrath of an angry, vengeful God that will turn each home in the area into its own Superdome for at least 24 solid hours, producing no less than 5 inches of rain and 55mph gusts of wind. And that’s not in the suburbs, where they fucking deserve it, either; it’s right here in Philly! Fuck! We’re all gonna die! So plan ahead:
· Cram in as much fun as you can after work: First Friday (see below), My Morning Jacket at Festival Pier, what have you. Weekend picks will be up in an hour or so.
· BUT BEFORE YOU DO, make sure you get enough food and booze in the house to make the rest of the weekend not suck. You’re not going to want to go out in this.
· Plan alternate forms of entertainment because there is at least some likelihood that your cable, satellite or Internet will get blown out. Don’t ask me what people do without these things. Ghost stories? Reading the Bible? You’re on your own.
But seriously, be careful out there. Or in there. Not to be alarmist, but this looks like it’s going to be a mess.
