I've experienced plenty. Now they've got to be pretty big (over 4.4) for me to notice them. Loma Prieta 1989 was the "big" one I felt. My dad had just made me flip from "Gimme a Break" to the World Series and I was pissed. Almost as soon as I changed, the picture went out. I was sitting by a number of windows and my mom and dad were on a couch which happened to have a couple of pictures hanging over it. I picked up the 2yo girl my mom was babysitting, threw her on the couch with my parents and then held the two pictures in place until the jolt stopped. All school was cancelled for the rest of the week and the amusement park I worked at was closed that weekend. No damage to the house and only one thing fell. The most memorable thing about it was that it was LOUD.

My son's quilt. Now it's acting as a sun shade. Note too, that this isn't my house. I just live here for now.

I should clarify that I actually have to make an effort to smell anything. I turn off that sense at all times.

My boy and me in Half Moon Bay. The girl took it and I think it's one of her first scent pics. She was probably 6 at the time which makes the boy 4 or 5.

How about sock? Got my shoes wet kicking the ball with my kid. Could only find one of the other kids socks to put on for warmth while we wait for soccer to end.

zoe participated in "What did you want to be when you "grew up"? Did you actually do it?"

zoe — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:01:48 -0800

Nothing. As a kid I never gave thought to being anything as an adult. I also never thought about marriage or any of that business. I still am not sure what I would want to be if I worked.

This picture doesn't do it justice. This is what happens when I decide to grow it from a super short pixie to a bob - I have to go through this awkward stage. Also, my daughters hair actually looks the worst here.

This guy worked with my dad at IBM for decades. He used to weigh, I'm guessing, 400+ lbs. There was a picnic once at a local park that had a train and he took my younger brother and me to ride it. On the way back he held each of our hands and I remember being terrified by his size. He had dark hair then and the beard was longer. He also had on overalls.

I can't get my husband to ride the bus and it drives me crazy. I don't know why everybody doesn't do it.

zoe participated in "Ride on a bus"

zoe — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 19:22:39 -0800

This is my driveway. I would have had to get over, under and around all this mess just to get to the road that would take me to the trail that would lead me to the bus stop. So, yeah, I didn't take a bus today.

I would try and try again to fix the problem. I would then decide to occupy myself in some other way and forget there was a problem at all until I tried again. And again and again.
