I guess the close you are to the ground (like walking on it) the less you feel?
We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

All this quake talk is making me nervous. The earth is not supposed to move under my feet.
Yeah, that would be one of the only things about LA that is scary.
ION, as I was TYPING this...
I have all of three rugs in the entire house. Three. Puppy just puked all over one, skillfully and narrowly managing to miss the easily-cleanable wooden floor.
Sigh.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
All this quake talk is making me nervous. The earth is not supposed to move under my feet.
From my perspective this sounds pretty much exactly like:
"Water is not supposed to fall out of the sky!"
or
"The wind is not supposed to go 100 miles per hour!"
or
"What the hell is with the frozen water blotting out the landscape and clogging up the roads!"

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
"The wind is not supposed to go 100 miles per hour!"But it's noooooooooot...
All this quake talk is making me nervous. The earth is not supposed to move under my feet.Sweetie, the ground moves. It's a fact of SoCal living...
Yeah, that would be one of the only things about LA that is scary.Though if this is the only thing you find scary about LA? Mazel tov!

Right now, i get jealous of the east coast.
Me? Not so much. I don't miss the gross sticky humidity of New England summers, or the mosquitoes. I don't even wish for a/c more than about a week out of the year, when I move the fan into the bedroom and suffer nobly.
No earth-shakage here today, yay.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I ran my two A/cs all day yesterday set at 76 (for 950 sq ft). Then I turned my bedroom one off at night and it stayed pretty cool. I also keep all the blinds pulled all day to keep out the sun and that helps a lot.
The kitchen is the only room taht gets really hot. It is furthest from the A/Cs, does not have blinds and gets afternoon sun. Add to that if you do any cooking and it gets pretty bad on these really hot days. I have a 2-way exhaust fan to install in the window and a ceiling fan. I hope that is enough. tonight I am gonna try to prepare some food with minimal cooking: gazpacho, cucumber soup, beans (in the crock pot), and some salmon.

What Consuela said. Plus right now? Hurricane season.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

No, sorry. All of those things are semi-predictable and avoidable. You cannot run and hide from an earthquake.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We need a second A/C to put in the kitchen, so the apartment can be cooled from both ends. In our old place, we had the A/C in the bedroom, but in this place, the bedroom window overlooks the fire escape, so no dice.

Puppy threw up on office rug. Puppy threw up on kitchen floor. Puppy threw up in back of car on way to vet.
My day is not starting well.
