Oh Irene, Blow if You Must!



Above, the Mistress with her smart hurricane wear .Well,well,well, it looks like the Mistress is all holed up in the Casa du Borghese for the weekend while the effects of Hurricane Irene are just now, as we speak, starting to take hold of the estate, And I understand from my personal local weather Meteorologist, Adam Joseph,swooooooooon,



that we are only hours now till the full effects will start. Adam, if you are available, the bar at the Casa is in open and I have plenty of extra room! We are expected to get 7"10" (a good Saturday night most times for the Mistress) of rain with winds of up to 55-70 mph winds. Philadelphia public subway and trains will stop running at midnight, as well as the buses and regional rails. Currently is it is very dark with a moderate rain and light winds. The Mistress is all set, and if Irene wants to come, then come! I had my conjugal visit with the Lad last night, as well as stocked up on my tonic and gin, and various provisions to par take of. I did my shopping late last night to avoid the mass chaos, and I don't think I ever saw the store so empty!!!





The first picture is where the juice and milk are usually stocked, and some poor woman was so upset they didn't have any milk left. I told her I just picked up a half gallon in the organic aisle and even that was pretty empty. I also have my cock-a-tail shaker ready, my candles ready, and a couple flashlights as well plenty of water. I'll keep you updated if the power stays, and if the Mistress and house boys are still coherent! I just hope my little ole windows hold up later!!!

  2. When are y'all ever coherent? Hoping you don't lose power. You need to be able to dine upon international cheeses to temper the effects of all that gin.
