Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Someone from Half Moon Bay twittered an estimate of 5.0.

I'm guessing 5.2

Which I pulled from my ass....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Aims--I have. It's ouchy but nothing a little ibuprofen can't handle. I found it less painful than a mammogram (or a bikini wax, for that matter).

Thanks. My mom seems to think that since it's in my neck, they'll sedate me. Any truth to that? Should I plan on going back to work after or plan on staying home?

Shit, Dana, that sucks. I'm so sorry.

Oooh, SF quake! Since moving somewhere where a quake COULD happen, I have become oddly paranoid about it. But only when I am going to sleep at night. I have no idea why.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The website I checked says 4.6.

Aimee, why don't you ask the doctor? I find they usually include that kind of info in the instructions they send me before a procedure, so the nurse should be able to tell you.

egad. I need more coffee. It's like a drug.... oh wait... duh!

Ouch, Dana! That totally sucks. A fie upon them!

People in the earthquake area, you're ok, right?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Perkins/Lee was much closer than the rest of us, by about 40 miles, but up in SF everyone's fine as far as I know. It was only three seconds long, two solid brisk jolts. Everyone in my office area had a moment's doubt--Was it just a big truck? It wasn't, was it? One person was on the phone with a colleague in Chicago who got all squealy and excited about talking to an actual Californian during an actual earthquake, which we all thought was kind of adorable.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

First quake in the new house! M & I were sitting in the kitchen, and rrrrrrruuuuuuumbbbbbblllllle. Whee!
