Dream

10:28am JST Friday 11 March 2011 (day 14961)

flying with a kite strapped to me or attached to some wigs of some kid, I was supposed to stay in the local area, but I was at the whim of the wind, and started to go u a mountain and knew that the sea was just on the other side of the montain. I was afraid of falling into the sea so I made my kits sink and I basically stopped by hitting trees on the mountain.

at the beach, seven of us wee with Mr Van, and three of them got into the van and treid to drive away, leaving for of us behind! At first we were like "wtf" or "haha funny joke," but then he drove further away, and I didn't know Mr Van's license plate number, but the guy was swerving around and flipped over sideways. I got out my iPhone and called 911 and the recording in Japanese was like, "aight leave a message," and then I wanted to take a picture of the van to get the license plate, but the phot app wasn't working as I remembered, and the van license plate was fuzzy anyway.

(but for some reason none of these triggered my brain that I was dreaming)

Earthquake

2:54pm JST Friday 11 March 2011 (day 14961)

That was the most awesome earthquake I've ever felt. Ironically my iPhone app hasn't reported it, but that was the most awesome earthquake EVAR. It lasted like 45 seconds at least.

The neighbors all came outside. I was like "just enjoy it; there's nothing we can do" when Kana was going "scarryyy."

Oooooh it just registered on my phone. 7.9 magnitude. awesome! my biggest ever for sure! I wonder if we'll get a tsunami; I should go to the beach hmmmmm.

It was up near Sendai, not near Tokyo. I hope peope there are safe.

me: we just now got another aftershock Bob: When did the first one hapen? me: about 15 mins ago 15:10 Bob: Was the shaking severe enough to damage much where you were? me: it's neat; the whole house is like gently shaking as in a big thunderstorm nah it was just super long; with side to side shaking Bob: Or a train going by. me: no vertical shaking that I noticed 15:11 yeah, like a train rumbling the windows It was long enough that I was able to go outside and feel the street wobbling back and forth Bob: Interesting! me: I want to go to the beach, but I doubt there will be a tsunami

earthquaked

10:52pm JST Friday 11 March 2011 (day 14961)

Today has been relatively relaxed for me; I skyped with Fred for 1.75 hours and told him I was fine, though he was unaware of the earthquake. Lots of people have asked about me via FB or T, so that's been nice. Thank you all; I'm A-okay!

After phone service came back, Lin called me to say the streets were packed with people trying to go home with no trains running.

Later, Soness called me in quite more of a panic than I would expect. She asked about the cat and everything. I guess she didn't get my text messages that I'm fine.
