How are the Left Coastie Friends doing?

#1 Post by christie1111 » Wed Jul 30, 2008 7:28 am

Sounds like a lot of aftershocks.

And I am sure PSMs house didn't look as bad as some of the pictures on the morning TV shows. Everything flying of the shelves and shelves knocking into other shelves like dominos.

I did think of the Judge Judy thread when I saw those exerpts! LOL!

I am further away from the epicenter than the PSM family so there was less damage. Well, there was none actually. But I didn't get to eat a deep fried avocado or frog legs.

I'm staying away from anyplace that likes to deep fry just about anything....

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

Nothing knocked out of place at my house on the Westside of LA.
I haven't felt any aftershocks, either.

No damages here by The OC John Wayne Airport area. I haven't felt any aftershocks today, but I am probably just used to it. :wink:

We haven't felt any aftershockes and all of the glass was picked up last night. The books are back on the shelves, the pictures have been straightened, the drawers have been closed and Jeff's Millionaire pin shadowbox was glued and is sitting on the table, drying.

Emma opened her closet this morning and a box of Legos fell on her and hurt her arm.

Jasper has been hiding under the bed all day, but the girl cats are back to normal.

I haven't felt a thing since the building settled yesterday.

Okay, that's not quite true. The building's elevators shut down yesterday, as they're designed to do, until they could be inspected. I returned from lunch before that inspection. I had to climb 11 flights of stairs to return to my office. My legs are <U>not</U> happy. --Bob

Good to see things are getting back to normal.

Nothing is ever normal here. I had dinner on the Venice Boardwalk just to make sure.

To make sure nothing was normal? :P
