Confidential To The Good Senator:

1) You didn't tell me you were going to fucking florida.

2) But congrats on being smart enough to bring a raincoat. Did you know that raincoats are made for people who live in ridiculous, barely inhabitable areas, e.g., Seattle and Florida, that are actually completely waterproof? You know, the yellow rubber ones that make you look like an extra in the movie version of The Perfect Storm?

3) Have you noticed that our blogs increasingly are almost like an email exchange to one another, with occasional entertainment value for others?

p.s. You are NOT permitted to travel to Cuba until this storm passes. ¿claro?

p.p.s. I still haven't drunk your first present. But I might soon. Like tonight. yum. I'll let you know how it is.
