I heard a guy on the radio say something about not feeling a quake. I didn't feel one. I am on the east coast. Was there supposed to be a quake today or something?

I was at work and we never felt a thing there. I was on break at the time and a 24 year old girl texted my friend to tell us that she felt a quake at 145pm. We texted back, "What were you smoking today?" Then we heard from some customers that there really was a quake. Even funnier is that this morning we woke up, watched the weather network and there was a TORNADO WARNING. Now, my kiddos are scared. It's hard to tell them that these things DON' happen here when they happened on the same day. They closed the Brock Monument but that was about it here. It is a very inactive fault. A few people felt it but even people in the same house didn't feel it shaking. I heard it was a 5.5. I guess in LA terms, that wouldn't even wake you up, right Pep? HEHEHEHE I was AMAZED that there was this much activity on my thread. I was wondering what you were all chatting about. HEHEHEHEHE ETA I guess it was a 5.0 quake now instead.

Yeah 5.0 is not too big but big enough to scare people, slosh water out of swimming pools and fill the TV news screen with talk about nothing but...
Hope your boys are ok now!

Reminds me of this skit Robin Williams did, he detailed LA/CA as God's etch-a-sketch.
'You get kinda blazej (sp?) about it. Like, oh, @$() -spills water- ...2.5, not bad....OH SH** -big water spill-...5.8, maybe we should have drinks outside.'
(Paraphrased and edited for language.)
I'm sorry.
One year becomes two, two years becomes five, five becomes ten and before you know it, you've wasted your whole life on a problem you can't solve. That's one way to spend your life. -rwinger
I will not spend my life this way.

My boys are fine right now(other than the fact they are sleeping). It's just that they have seen things on TV about floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, and forest fires. I would always reassure them that there was nothing to worry about here. The worst things that happened in this area was blizzards. I told them that the earth quakes and tornadoes happen here but it is very rare. They are going to be fine about it.
When I was a kid, I heard about the doomsday clock. I heard it say something about, "five minutes to midnight." This caused me to not be able to go to sleep until 1205am EVERY NIGHT. THis habit carried over into adulthood, even though I knew it meant something I didn't understand at the time.

It was fun watching Canadian news people who are experiencing their FIRST QUAKE .... react ON CAMERA as the quake happened.
One time, a local LA news guy, Kent SHOCKnek ( his name, for real) Climbed UNDER his news desk while on camera. He took a ton of flack for that, but to his credit, these were pretty forceful aftershocks and there are HUGE heavy lights over his head.

So, I was at my parent's house last night and I was talking to my mom(she makes me angry with her fog-talk, ARGH). She was telling me that my Dad won her back by all of the things he was doing while she was gone. She says that my Dad was all she ever thought about while she was with her "thing." I mentioned my thoughts about my own sitch and that as I read other people's stories of recovery and what happened with my parents, that I sometimes wonder if I should be having more contact with Bampot(just thoughts). My mom said that she agrees with what I am doing and that Bampot does know that I love him and that I have always loved him. Sometimes these silly thoughts creep in. At the better times, I am COMPLETELY sure about my steps. Sometimes the doubts creep in. I am NOT wavering in my convictions to do the BEST Plan B that I can muster, I am just sharing my thoughts to help others who are feeling the same thing. You are not alone. We are in this together.
