On Second Thought...

Well, it seems like the head honchos back in Houston, TX have decided, in their meteorological expertise, that Tropical Storm Ida will be too weak to cause us any trouble when she comes our way.

So we're staying.

Now I was disappointed at first; I HATE it when someone says I might get to go home and then dashes all my hopes once I've just gotten them up. But I was able to quickly progress from indignation to stoic resignation to satisfied acceptance and even willingness to stay, since the longer I am offshore, the stronger my case for a nice long break after I finally DO get home.

And... dare I hope? A Thanksgiving with family?

Nope, nope, nope. Ignore the above. I don't want to jinx it.
