Freke, I'm sorry, hun. *hugs*

Squirrly - earthquakes are best experienced from inside an interior doorway. Brace your back and legs against one side, and your hands on the opposite side. If there is no doorway near, you want to be under a solid piece of furniture, like a solid dining room table. Hold on to the leg of the table with one arm (or desk or whatever) pull your knees under your chest, tuck your head to your knees, and cover your neck with one arm. (Wow, apparently I remember a lot from earthquake drills at school.)

Hehehe!!! Our last major earthquake was in 2000(1?) and it was a 6.8 or something. Big. I was in class and the ground started moving and my quiet, cute, non-swearing english teacher goes 'OH SH*T!! Get under your desks!' It was hilarious!!!

Freke - I'm so sorry hun.

Big hugs.

Hahaha. I love it. BF always gets all concerned when he hears about an earthquake in CA (since a lot of my family is out there). At least...he did get concerned until my mom and I teased him a little bit about getting all worried about an itty bitty 5-pointer. He's learned that nothing below a 7 really gets our attention.

ETA: I think he would have been okay with the teasing. I think it was the jostling him or pushing him lighting and squealing "Five pointer!" that got to him.

I like earthquakes. Not when buildings fall or people get hurt, but they''re exciting! When we have 5-pointers it''s like, damn I missed it!!

Squirrly! I haven''t seen you around here much lately! How are you?

good, much better now that my senior recital got moved to january! although by this time next week i may not feel so good, the hospital i work at is changing computer systems. monday the new system goes live in all the hospitals... and i will be drinking after work.

other than work and school i''m afraid the most exciting things i''ve done is join farmville for my fall break, made chocolate cake in a mug in the microwave in 5 minutes, and i had pumpkin jalapeno soup. and he''brew, the chosen beer.

thanks for the earthquake info

when we had our earthquake (last year i think it was) at 3am i wasn''t entirely sure if i was dreaming, much less why i was shaking. now for my next question, how in the world will i drive in san diego and not die.

After not sleeping much last night, I decided something.

I hate FI.

He wants 5 different electronic toys. iPod touch, netbook, PS3, etc etc etc. I need to get him a wedding present. He has set these standards that he wants something that isn't "disposable". That's sentimental. That he'd keep around for the next 50 years without any problems. That knocks out electronics.

I found the perfect thing. It's PERFECT. Only it's $1,000.

I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY.

So, I love my STUPID FI enough (or whatever) to beg my dad for a loan. I am hoping he gives it to me, because other than this, I have NO IDEA what to get for him. AND DAMMIT, I LIKE MY SLEEP. $1,000 is worth it to me for sleep alone, but if it makes him happy--ALL THE BETTER.

Plus, yesterday was just crap anyway.

Thanks for all of your thoughts. It was SO unexpected....

There isn''t an album, but I''m tagged in them.

 

[Lauren8211]

Oh, and I decided I''m an ugly crier.

There''s a picture of me really starting to cry when I read my vows. I HATE that picture. I look awful.

 

[misskitty]

Afternoon, ladies! I am le tired, but a nap is probably not going to happen today.

elle, don''t feel bad -- I don''t think *anyone* likes the way they look when they cry!

 

[sunnyd]

Yeah right. I bet you look beautiful!

Did you guys talk about your vows beforehand? I''m worried that mine will be too funny, not long enough, not meaningful enough, etc etc.

You are sweet. But no, its a terrible picture. I''m not photogenic as it is, and this one is just... ugh.

We talked about length, and seriousness. Everything else was kept secret. We opted to have no humor, and ours ran about a minute long each.
