jitters from the shake!

Tonight ,there was an earthquake here on maui. The day for me has been pretty good. I stayed home. I was planning to go to the Paia Bash but realize with only 8 bucks cash. and only 62 in the bank, i know i can't walk out my door for any leisure reason. I was kinda bummed cause i wanted to meet this girl from twitter who was gonna go too.(Fasha). Well, i made grilled chicken on my George Foreman grill that i got a garage sale a few weeks ago. I like that machine. I even did my zucchini on it too.very juicy. All i know is that i was sitting at my computer and i just felt this huge jolt. i knew right away it was an earthquake. it rattled a few seconds which felt like minutes. my house i call a cabin cause it has no drywall in it. i like my wood wall and wood floors. and only 700 sq ft. This may sound wild , but i am all natural and in my birthday outfit, and i was running around my house to put on some clothes cause i wanted to go outside. LOL, i put on a sarong.(usually i have one on, but tonite i didn't) I went out on my deck(with the sarong on) and just stared out into the sky. i was waiting for an aftershock. i stayed out there a few minutes, than i tweeted it on twitter. WOW. yay it is amazing that twitter!
MEMORY>>>>>>>>
back in the mid 80's (86/or 87) i was in Pasadena and was awaken by an earthquake. it was very strong. i was staying with high school friends who attended college. i was so jittery! but i learned to get in the doorway. I had to work that night(i worked in marina Del Ray) and people at work said they weren't phased by it, it happens a lot. Well i never experience a lot of them so i just didn't know how to react. luckily, i had my ticket to come home to maui. it was just a waiting game from then on. I was happy to be back home.<<<<<<WOW> i must say i felt jittery this time too. . on edge. uncertain. darn it is hard to have these feelings because i am usually so much in control of ME> but hey i can't control mother maui moving like she did. and i wonder why such activities. dormant for ages and now sudden movement. makes ya wonder.??
I know the Big island is alive and growing and the people there know they live on an island with an active volcano. Here on maui...makes ya wonder
AND, this week i lost everything on this computer.pictures,files, music, oh well. i am not that attached. but i will be more aware of what is coming on to it now!
so sorry no pic this time.
but if you can imagine...............
birds calling the sun out in the morning, sun shining, light winds blowing,air is fresh, flowers so fragrant, sunsets so lovely. hey maui no ka oi!
i love my beautiful self
i love my beautiful body
i love you
