Hurricane Ike hit Galveston earlier today and it got me worried sick. R's cruise just left the port and I was wondering if they were able to veer away from the eye of the storm. Just got word that they indeed have but the waves are so huge and it's still a rocky ride. Needless to say, I'm still worried. I hope that R decides to stay here. We've talked about it some. I don't want to stay in the way of his dreams and his ambition but I don't think I'll ever get used to him being away at sea all the time. I die a little each time I hear news like this and specially if I don't hear from him right away.
