jateshi, I have decided that updating my earthquake supplies is also a necessity, yeah?

I just need new batteries for all the torches, updated supplies in the four first aid kits scattered about the house, and perhaps a Honda generator for emergency backup.

Well...it's still a maybe on that last one. I need to discuss it with the family about it. But it seems like a very good thing to have on hand in case of emergency. Of course, I just restocked the water supply last night....25 gallons of water. ^_^


What prompted all this consideration? Reading that predicitve report from the scientists at my almer mater predicting a major earthquake of at least a 7.0 on the Richter scale. Cuz you know, I live near a fault line that moves from side to side. Yeah. Better safe than sorry, right? stfu, California's not going to fall in the ocean...we're just going to break off from the mainland and hang out with the peeps in hawaii. =-P

But seriously, my heart and prayers go out to those affected in the Quake that hit Pakistan and India.

That's a good idea. We're supposed to have a first aid kit and flashlight in the house and in the car. Stock up on canned foods and water. We're supposed to have 5 gallons for each person per week. I'm not prepared at all. This is something we should have.

Yeah. I thought of that while reading articles on the quake earlier.

It's all good. We can take care of that since you and Dave just moved into your new home!


Are we still painting your master bedroom? Or helping you settle in with the kitchen? Ikea on Friday, right?

Make sure you print out a lot of porn. California is so going to drop beneath the ocean. *hugs* Stay safe love.

Hmmm...I'll print it out if you write some for me. Sorry, babes, that's Japan. California will probably end up next to Seattle. *huggles back* I'll be safe...the prediction was for sometime in the next 23 years.
