Update: My cousin and his partner has evacuated from their apartment in LA, and so has my friend Kirsten. Unfortunantly Kirsten will probably loose everything as the fire is less than 2.5 miles away

Please pray for the City of Los Angeles. It's on fire right now. 100,000 people are under evacuation in the Palisades and Hollywood Hills right now. If you live in an evacuation zone, just go, it's not worth risking your life to save your property.
@Glory_feeling2 my cousin evacuated due to the air quality being horrific, his girlfriend has severe asthma, they are going up to stay with a friend in Seattle in the meantime. My friend from NJ, she evacuated, and she was in a mandatory evacuation zone, and more than likely her house is gone.
@CooperHChurch Hi! Yes, I heard about that. A lot of celebs lost their homes.
Luckily I don't live in So Cal ( that's how I call it). I'm in the central portion ... many miles away. But it is weird, cause it's not Summer, so how did a wildfire begin? And the Santa Ana winds are so fierce, that it's spreading around Los Angeles. Have some relatives over there, hope they took shelter!
I just was used as a tape measurer. My mom broke another tape measurer and had to measure in Sam's. When wearing sneakers I am exactly 5'5.
We measured an item at a little over 5 Sam's and 3 inches
I am officially graduated. Today I received my Bachelor of Science in Health Service Administration from UCF. I will say, the commencement was longer than my brothers were. It lasted a full 4 hours start to finish. The shocking part was the amount of Doctoral degrees being awarded, that took up over half the ceremony, and there were about 50 students receiving that. The commencement lasted long enough that when the president of UCF announced they had another speaker, you could hear the crowd audibly sigh. The next announcement of a second speaker resulted in an audible moan from the crowd.
I got a good laugh at it.
@CooperHChurch Congratulations on getting your Diploma. Let me guess, did you opt for the graduation ceremony where all the majors were presented? My brother chose that one when he graduated which lasted for nearly 3 and a half hours due to the speakers. For me, I opted only for my batch as my degree was for mainly teachers and the arts which only lasted for half an hour. (And for those who want to say it... a Liberal Arts degree isn't the best to get in College but you gain a lot of knowledge )... As my BA degree was in Multi-disciplinary subjects ( this was before STEM - -> Science, Technology, Engineering and Math core was created ... I think I could have attempted that major.
I studied almost every subject but not with flying colors. I'm just an indecisive person.
Anyway, good luck with that degree and wish you luck on making good use of it!
Just spent the last six hours rearranging my room. We are getting ready to move, and I realized I had no wall space that was visible, so I more or less flipped my room, but made it so my desk was next to my piano stand. It look a lot better, and it finally is manageable. We originally thought of the layout when we moved to our current home in 2018, but we didn't think it would work.
I might have to call the fire department on my neighbors. Brevard County is under a burn ban as of the 8th. Our fire index is 515 and we have had the lowest rainfall in 50 years.
I may or may not have applied for a job as a Quality Assurance Laboratory Technician at Oasis Systems - at the Kennedy Space Center. I was reading over the details, and I think it means I might be the last step in the system for the VAB as it has "working in environments up to 500 feet" the VAB is 528 feet tall.
