Jul. 19th, 2004 05:21 pmSomeone cut a cable this morning, and all phone service (both cellular and land line) to Wrightwood was cut. Lovely.
When we realized that all phone service was out, we wondered for a second if LA had been nuked or something, and we were just sitting there trying to dial into the internet. Then we remembered we could always check the "old-fashioned" way, turned on the TV, and discovered that the rest of the world still existed.
It occasionally makes me nervous staying here. The closest hospital is at least half an hour away, and today we couldn't even have called 911.
I was sick this morning. Not sure what exactly it was. My stomach and back hurt, and I had the chills when I went down for a nap at about 1:00. When we woke up at 3:30, I was fine.
In Virginia, I never got sick. Or rarely, anyways. I think I may have had a cold once or twice. Now I've been sick twice since we moved back to CA, and I tended to get sick fairly regularly before leaving CA last year. A friend who moved from VA at about the same time reports similar.
Part of it is undoubtedly the air quality. I hope it lets up a bit when we're on the coast.
