I was minding my own business, puttering through the work day, and an e-mail from my best friend in L.A. pops up: "EARTHQUAKE!"
I happened to be in San Fran the day of the Northridge quake, but was in L.A. for all of the aftershocks. 'Tis not a good thing. Made me berry, berry nervous. The best part? I was sitting in my rather trashed apartment when my boss called up and said, "The office won't be open for a few days, but I want you to call all of our major customers and tell them we're still doing business." I said, "Bev, I don't have the numbers." She said, "You know what cities they're in. Call Directory Assistance."
And I sat there thinking, WTF? My apartment is TRASHED, and she wants me to do memory tricks. I had no idea what cities those companies were in. Aarrrrrrggghhhh.
But, DUDE. Your ceiling fell in? Perhaps it was in cosmic sympathy with the seismic activity out west. Hope you can get things put back in order with minimal stress.
