Thanks for everyone's comments. :)

Hopped online for a bit. Right now we've got the news on and I'm watching them trying to hold the fire line about a mile and a half from my place.

ETA: 6:30 p.m. Pacific. So far I've still got a home. I think. But the area near me is still burning. Don't know if I'll be able to get in there tomorrow yet - probably all depends on the winds. Man, this is exhausting.

ETA2: 11:30 a.m. Wednesday. I've tried updating before, but the internet keeps dying here. We got a brief break this morning when it was clear and the air was smokeless, but now the smoke's back and the wind has picked up again. It sounds like my place is out of any immediate fire danger for now, but the evacuation order hasn't been lifted yet. Not sure when it will be, and I can understand their caution for not doing it - the Witch fire merged with another fire this morning, so this isn't over. But I WANT TO GO HOME.

I hope it all turns out okay for you.

I hope that everything will turn out okay for you.

I was wondering since I hadn't heard from you today.

Right now, we're just dealing with the stench of the fire and the totally sucky air quality. Little bits of ash but not a whole lot. And the freakin' heat. OMG. It's like being in an oven and having all the moisture sucked out of you by the heat.

When does Karen leave? What about your work? Is it evacuated, too?

Please keep us updated if you can. We'll all be thinking of you and sending you best wishes for sure.

Ack! Ack! Ack!

*sends many good wienerwishes your way*

Jonas sends some too!

Eeesh. My thoughts are with you hun.

*cuddles*

Good luck with the not-burning!

*Hugs*

I'm still hoping for the best for you and everyone else. Stay safe!

mental *hugs!* - check!

crossed fingers - check!

candles and incense lit - um... maybe next time.

various non-flamable offerings made to the whatever high atop the thing for your continued safety - double check!

*totally hugs michelle*

I've got my fingers, toes, legs, and arms crossed for you. I'd hug you, but I don't think I can untangle all my limbs. I'm thinking good fire going out thoughts for you.

Hope everything turns out alright. We miss you.

Hope everything turns out okay.

*sends good thoughts*

Fingers crossed for you!

Oh man *big hugs*

Stay safe my friend x

Hadn't realized you were that close to the fire.

Good luck.

I sympathize with your predicament - I was attending Pepperdine during the 1999 fire. My suite mates & I evacuated (one of the girls had bad asthma, had already gone through one inhaler, and could NOT have stayed on campus), and I remember watching footage of the firefighters standing in the parking lot at JPL (which was pretty much right behind campus, and much close to the faculty housing) doing their best to keep the flames away from the big tanks full of jet fuel.

The fire burned down the hills, directly across from the dorms. It was a scary, tense situation for everyone involved.

I know it sucks, and doesn't ease the situation at all, but I think we're all just glad you're safe. Keep us updated.

*chibis run form a barricade around Michelle*

I've not been on much since Friday, but have been watching the news and wondered how close you were to the fires. Thinking about you and wishing for the best.
