I am sorry about the insomnia, ita. I hope you can get back to sleep soon.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Could very well have, ita. I think there are horns going off a lot all over the place.
Yeah, I saw on NHK that they upgraded it, so I think their numbers were just off to begin with, Cass. Probably wise to back off the coverage. I can't seem to.

Oh, you guys - as much as I miss posting with you, the one thing I wish for you at this hour of (your) night is a peaceful restful sleep.

I'm glad I've already heard from my friend in Kobe, thankfully. They haven't been affected around there. The earlier Kobe quake was right after he moved there. Yikes.

Yeah, out houseguests the other weekend were here to pick up a passport for grandma at the Japanese consulate in Atlanta. I think they were scheduled to fly to Japan yesterday, but I'm not positive, and I don't know where they were going first. They were planning to stay a month.

At the same time, I'm expecting that this will be the best-photographed and -videoed disaster ever.
