At least it’s a bit cooler today…

Hope you survived the earthquake ok. Alert DC sends an advisory in case of another one:

“o Take cover under a desk, table, or bench. If none is available, use an inside wall or doorway.
o Stay away from windows, outside doors, walls, and anything that could shatter or fall on you.
o If you’re sleeping, stay in bed and cover your head with a pillow. If your bed is under a heavy light fixture or you have a large mirror or painting over your headboard, move to the nearest safe place.
o Stay inside until the shaking stops. Most injuries during an earthquake occur when people enter or exit a structure.”

You should also follow these instructions if the communists invade…

Any tricks for how to survive this heat? I’m currently working on perfecting the ice pack vest… (patent pending, patent pending!)

I’m happy to pass on the good news that Leo the dog was found:

“Just wanted to let you know so you can tell your readers that Leo was found this morning (alive and well)! Our landlady/housemate and her 2 dogs spotted him on Belmont in Adams Morgan just a few houses down from where he lives and she was able to lure him in with treats before calling the owners (or maybe the sitters). I have talked with so many people in the area who were worried about Leo so I know a lot of people will be relieved to hear this!”
