I don’t like it. At all.
Those of you that know me, or have read enough of this blog, know that I have a fear of natural disasters. And for whatever reason, maybe it was that there was an earthquake nearby this past week, but I get the strange feeling that something of that nature is going to happen in Seattle. Soon.
I REALLY HOPE MY GUT IS WRONG. REALLY. Maybe this is just a byproduct of yesterday’s depression...I don’t know.
In the mean time, I’m taking this feeling as an initiative to be prepared for the worst. It came to my attention that my family really has no idea where my apartment building or office buildings are located in the city. They haven’t been here yet. They would have no idea which friends to try to contact to find me if I wasn’t available. Needless to say, I will be remedying this situation very quickly.
I guess what scares me the most is the likeliness of where I would be when such an event might occur. My office building is old, and sits on the SIDE of Denny Hill. And of course I’m on the top floor of this old building, sitting in the corner of the floor…on the LOWER side of the hill (meaning the side that is furthest from the ground). And if I’m at home...well, my apartment building is fairly new and doesn’t appear to be cheaply built, but it’s smack dab next to a huge I-5 bridge. If that thing collapses, well, I don’t want to think about that.
So, that’s my intuitive rant for the day. Once again, I’m really hoping my gut feeling is wrong. It never hurts to be prepared, I suppose.
