Earthquake!

[trinityofone]

Yikes! Not only did we just have a 5.8, I got to experience it from a high-rise building, which has never happened to me before. (However, for the second time in my life, I was on the toilet when the quake hit—is the universe trying to tell me something?) It was very strange—we're on rollers, so it was more like being on a turbulent ship than the usual shaky stuff. It's really only my hands that are shaky.

Angelenos: are you all okay? akukorax, ebrooklynw, I've been trying to call, but my cell is dead.

I'm going to take some deep breaths and keep trying to get ahold of my mom...

ETA: Oh god, I just realized—my apartment! There were dishes left out on the rack, and DVDs piled high behind the GLASS-DOORED armoire... And of course, books everywhere...ack. And I have to wait five hours to go home. :(

ETA2: I've gotten ahold of my mom, my aunt, and several friends, and I'm feeling much better. Now I just want my brother, who's out filming in Big Bear, to get over his technology aversion and check-in...

ETA3: How nice is Rodney McKay to check in from another galaxy, just because Sheppard is worried?

I'm wriggling in my chair, Sheppard, because there's something distinctly unerotic about knowing you've had sex with a man who would compare my prostate with a block.

Someone woke up literal this morning . . .

Someone woke up with a sleeping someone's hand over their face this morning.

I was asleep Rodney. It's not like I was groping your nose with intent.

I'm very much afraid it's a sign you harbour tendencies towards Freudianism.

. . . while I'm unconscious?

Are you seriously asking me to explain the inner workings of your mind, Sheppard? Because braver mental health professionals than I have tried and failed.

I'm gay, McKay. I don't think love of cock is something I'm repressing.

Fair point. I think I can safely say, based on experience, that the only thing you regularly repress is your gag reflex.

Aw, shucks. You say the nicest things.
