Earthquake in Japan today.
Largest in recorded history.
Followed by a tsunami that killed many and caused a TON of damage.
What was going through my mind...
- another one? this earthquake tsunami thing isn't something i grew up with. is it me or is getting more frequent? or is it that we have amazing communication tech and are watching events happen in real time instead of reading about the aftermath in the newspapers?
- crap! tsunami? where is it going? crap! Marie's friend Echo and her tiny baby (and dh) are in Honolulu. are they ok? (which by the way they ARE ok, but wasn't exactly a GREAT experience for them to be woken in the middle of the night by tsunami alarms..would i even know what they were?)
- wow. i wonder how this is going to impact the humanitarian need at church and what we will be able to do?...
- figures. (and i admit this is a really superficial and selfish thought)...we rent a house on the coast, and just a few days after we have the stay paid for it is in danger of
floodingbeing wiped off the coast by a stinkin TSUNAMI!? we chose a house on the bay and as close to sea level as possible to have a true "beach" experience. ummmmm....not THAT much beach experience thank you very much.
i don't need bragging rights there. not so much.
THE END
