Kristen, news is reporting that they are trying to get up a temp cell phone tower for Long Beach, but it not up yet. LICC is where they are having people go for a shelter. Red Cross is set up there.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

I am working on a spreadsheet project. Lots of cutting and pasting and re-formatting. I have two monitors, so I am still getting work to people while I listen to the news and occassionally watch some reports.

Hooray! Her tenant just texted me to say that my mother is alive. That's good to know.
Kristen, she is in Long Beach?
Yep. The West End which undoubtedly was one of the harder hit areas since it's only three blocks from beach to bay.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Yay!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Disney just bought LucasFilm. Episode 7 will come out in 2015.
I think I need some help reacting to that.
Preferably from Simon Pegg.

Thank god for her tenant. I'm up here in Toronto and I've spent the entire day not sure of what the hell to do.
