Just felt my first earthquake...

[katbaggins]

Well it's official... after three years and five months in Los Angeles, I've finally experienced my first earthquake. Kinda freaky at first, and Emma was (is still) freaked out. Just a bit of shaking for maybe ten seconds, then it was over

Congrats! ;)

Glad to know you're home and Emma's okay - I was about to call and see if you did make it in :)

[katbaggins]

Thanks! I meant to call you last night, but then I fell asleep :)

Emma's doing lovely - her typical "Now you're back and I"ll love you for a little bit!" routine. How'd everything go on your end? Did she behave? :)

[cabarethaze]

Aw, glad you got some sleep.

She was bratty at the few first days and then surprisingly lovey. I mean, she played a bit and wove between my ankles when I was doing things. A couple times she even got in my lap to pretend like she hated being petted.

She does love to explore - OMG. There were bits of something that looked like orange jello spread across the floor at one point (I looked and have NO idea what that was), another time I left an empty food can to drain in the sink and found it in front of the door...etc,etc.

Thank you for the present, btw! It's on my fridge as a warning to all who enter :D

I totally didn't even feel it. XD My boss walked by all jaunty like and asked, "Did you feel the quake?" I had no idea.

This one lasted a good ten seconds, and I saw things shake a bit. It was kinda creepy - my heart started beating really fast!

Whoa, you didn't experience that 5+ one back around what, August/September? That one made my bedroom walls LEAN.

I felt the one last night, but it just rattled my desk a little. The girl behind me didn't even notice. ^^

really?

I remember a pretty big one during Secret Millionaire. Everybody had to clear out of the building. Maybe you weren't there yet?

BTW What's the new job?

Re: really?

I missed that quake - I was in WVa visiting family. I remember thinking "Oh crap, now I'll get hit with a big one instead!" Thankfully this one was small.

The new job is actually season five of Kathy Griffin. Eric's the line producer, and I'm excited to work with him again.
