I was racing around the house like the Road Runner.
“Hide between the coffee table and the couch, Meep Meep! Hide between the coffee table and the couch, Meep Meep!”
I tend to panic in life threatening situations.
In my defense, this was a quote from a letter we received only months ago from my Aunt and Uncle who live in Huntington Beach on “How To Survive An Earthquake And Not Die”. Chrisanne, of course, not only read this thing from top to bottom, but since that day has packed the trunk of the car with supplies: water, canteens, sleeping bags, blankets, tool kits, and if I’m not mistaken, a mechanic named Tony. We’re not only set for an earthquake, we’re set for a trip to the Himalayas.
