This is the foundation of all. We are not to imagine or suppose, but to discover , what nature does or may be made to do.
-Francis Bacon

it took me a little over 3 hours to get home last night..from the 101 to sidestreets to the 101..passing by the topanga canyon exit i saw a little reddish color at the corner of my eye..i glanced over and there you see it..the flames lining the mountains & hills...kinda freaked me out..and then i thought..mother nature, you really can be scary.

and so it's a new day..this morning i wake up to a voice on a bullhorn..at first i thought it was just my parents watching the news downstairs..but when i got up, their lights were still off downstairs...so i open my window to hear the police sirens..here the officer over the bullhorn telling people to evacuate..i run to the other room to turn on the news..and they announce that we should be evacuating too...after debate w/ the parentals..well you can see i lost..cuz here i am at work..what to do what to do..it was weird too..on the way to the freeway we passed by the gas station i usually fill up at..normally when we leave at this time it's empty..this morning..it was packed!..geez i don't know what to do.
