fire update
Still watching the news. It's hard to get accurate reports of where the flames are, but from what we can tell, the fire is still basically one street away from my family's house. Hopefully the winds don't shift westward again.
When the family was evacuated in 2003, they checked on their house by using the "answering machine trick". You call the phone number, and if the answering machine picks up, then you know your house is still standing. Unfortunately, this time, the answering machine isn't picking up - but reports say that the whole area has lost power.
Thankfully I don't have anything due work-wise. It'd be hard to concentrate with all this going on.

Hope they're okay, E! The fire stopped a good two miles from our house but the smoke is INSANE. I want to take my head off and use it like the ashtray it is becoming.
Ugh, yeah, the smoke. My allergies are killing me today.
See ya at BIERSCH!
