earthquake
Listening to the phone calls from people in Hawaii, some of whom say it was as long or longer than the huge one in California, obviously my first thought is to wish everyone there my best in terms of health and emotional support. It must be phenomenally scary and I feel very bad for them. Since one always personalizes things, I also can't help thinking about the bookcases and paintings that would have crumbled to the floor if it happened near my house. I often think that it would be awesome to retire to northern California - lots of sun, low humidity, ocean all the time - until this kind of thing happens and then I wonder. Anyway, at least they have beautiful things to look forward to once the crisis is done, and that's something good anyway.
