i feel the earth move under my feet.

so as some may have heard, there was a 6.6 earthquake in the Hawaiian islands on Sunday morning at about 7am-ish. i was done eating my breakfast, gotten dressed and was standing in the garage playing with my ipod when it hit. first the wind was strong and then the garage was shaking violently and then the house, the windows and the ground. a minute later it was done. all of the islands had the power knocked out. i went back inside my house and cried and saw that everything and everyone was ok. so i went to work. the store was a mess with busted ceiling tiles and glass and bottles overturned on the floor. the shelves were a mess. we all cleaned up and at about 10am the power turned back on. the day was crazy after that. other than that mishap, life is as normal. it was raining hevily all yesterday which was a great change. in all other arenas i am doing well. i've been exhausted lately which is weird cos i don't necessarily overdo it in my daily routine. but i've been very very tired. and forgetting things quite frequently. anyhow! aloha
