Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

And it looks like there was an aftershock about five minutes later [link]

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Thanks you guys! We have rain but no earthquakes. Which would be decidedly odd if we did, though it has happened before.

Our wings are not tired.

I've never felt an earthquake. My Philly raised first husband lived for a time on St. Thomas and his first earthquake his mind said 'subway going past', then remembered he was on an island, with no subways.

I'm thinking might be better ways to feel the earth move under my feet.

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

Belated happies to Kate & happy birthday to brenda!

M called & asked if I had felt the quake - I just thought it was a big truck going by, since we have construction on 2 nearby streets. He was just getting into his truck in San Mateo & he said it felt like someone jumping on his hood.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Brenda!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The only time I've felt an earthquake was in Austin, and it was far enough away that I barely noticed the closet door shaking.

Today was the first time my earthquake app went off and gave me an audible warning.

In other news, I found out today that my promotion went through and will be official next week!
