The Husband is off work this week so I might not get much blogging done. (See, I have an actual excuse now.) It’s officially a hunting vacation but since the deer live in our back yard there is no trip involved. Besides, this morning it’s raining. So most of the time he’s hanging around the house. All you other wives know what that means. Seriously though, he’s pretty handy to have around and I expect we will get some things done this week.
Last night, sometime between 8:00 and 9:00 I think, I thought I felt another slight tremor – very slight; it might have been my imagination, but I just started feeling like, “No, no, no, no! I can’t deal with this anymore.” Sheesh! I could never live in California. There’s something about not being able to trust the ground under my feet (and under my house) that really bothers me.
We got over an inch of rain overnight and it’s still raining. This is good but please stop before it gets cold enough to freeze everything. It is supposed to get colder tonight but then get warm(ish) again tomorrow.
Finally, I was going to steal this but I’m too lazy to bother with actually grabbing the image and posting it here so just a link. Yeah, that’s exactly what I think of every time I hear something about the Kardashians. (I had to Google that so I’d know how to spell it.)

I was lying in bed, reading, and I think I felt it, even as far away from the epicenter as I am. It makes for poor sleep as I start wondering, “What if a bigger one hits?” I don’t like the no-warning thing – at least with tornadoes you know one is likely coming.

Years ago, we had a small earthquake in these here parts. (I like writing “these here parts”) My first response was another part of one of the local refineries had exploded, which can happen now and then. It was about the same, although I think regular earthquakes last much longer, like diarrhea and bad neighbors. (Why does diarrhea have two “r’s”?)
I have to add that the word code match is “ugeese”. In context: “Ugeese” better quit eating my corn.

Right there with you on the Kardashian association.
