So apparently a massive earthquake hit Christchurch this morning an hour before I left Helena (I'm in Salt Lake City, whoooo Mormon Country) and I don't know if my friends and my kitty are alright :( Well, and my stuff, but that can be replaced.

Most reports I am seeing say only minor damage but not what I needed to hear an hour before I fly away. And, I am sure, not what anyone in the South Island needed. Shit, son. And power is out and mobile services are down.

Someone talk to meeeeee!


EDIT: Holy shit... http://www.stuff.co.nz/lightbox/the-press/news/4095796/?KeepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=560&width=640

Now I have to board.

Oh I don't mind the snooping! I encourage people to snoop my books. I just want to see the damage for myself, really.

Fair enough! I might move your laptop out of there. The chair caught your bookcase, thus saving the laptop (AWESOME) but there are STILL aftershocks. I was sleeping on the sofa and one happened and Ariadne had a FIT. It was hilarious.

I did a shop with Peter and Alina (they are wonderful and they fed me lunch too!) and so we have things! I am boiling water so I can fill up the empty jugs with it and put them in the fridge as well. HOPEFULLY by the time you get back the water will not need to be boiled, but you never know. Better safe than sorry.

OMG Barrington had NO bread. Actually none. Not a single loaf of ANYTHING. It was eerie. We went to Coupland's anyway and it's cheaper but seeing it was pretty surreal.

Oh yes, do move my laptop, that would be wonderful :)

Yes! Boil all the water, don't get sick! I'm glad shopping wasn't too much of a nightmare, scary about the bread though but not really surprising. Was tthere still fruit and meat?
