So! Semi-Update!
I havent done anything too exciting lately... Sadly.
Just working and working and working.
Good thing I love my job.
I recently felt my first earthquake ever.... It was Sunday night around 9PM.
A 5.0 in Hawthorne CA.

Heres the story:
I was in the AM/PM on Pacific and Willow in Long Beach when the earth began to quake.
I didnt know what was going on or what to do. I had seen a little boy walking around in the store so my first reaction was to find the boy. I found him clinging for dear life to one of my friends that had gone to the store with me. I then freaked out and ran to my car (with merchandise in my hands still...oops) to call Mikey. The lines were busy for about 30 minutes after the quake. I almost peed my pants... Scary.

THEN... Today at work I was working on my activity sheets when the ground began to shake again! I got up and walked to the door way when another one happened! My heart was pounding until Mikey picked me up... Which was about 15 minutes later.

TWO in a matter of two days!

Its not the fact that there was an earthquake that scares me.
Its the fact that Earth has a wrath beyond control of any man.
There is not a thing in this world that we can to do stop the many scary things that she is capable of.
I grew up in Washington's south eastern valleys where nothing like this happens so this was a huge slap in the face for me.
I cant believe that I was able to feel the Earth's tectonic plates move beneath my feet.
Mother Nature is the shit.
Seriously.

Anyhoo...

How ya be?
