Jen Dresses Up: Hurricane Survival Kit

Hurricane freak out!

I really tried to stay level headed about Hurricane Irene, but as you can see, that mentality went out the window. With all of the news reports & hysteria of people around me, I soon caught the bug. Wanna know a secret? I don't have too many friends where I live. I moved here about 5 years ago & while I've met a few people, it's really difficult to make friends here. Don't get me wrong, I've made a couple of great friends. I've found that Northampton is more of a stopover for most people. They're here a few years and then they move on. To be honest, I think Noho (as locals call it) will end up being a stopover for me as well. There you have it! I will be alone on Sunday (when Irene is scheduled to hit Western Mass). As I'm sure there are other single gals alone on this day, I thought I'd share my survival kit...
