Oh boy, folks, this is not good. Last night, I received a call from Mary, located in Sacramento-not yet on the net, and she wanted to check in with my symptoms-if any. It turned out that she and I had had several of the same ones at near the same times, but not quiet. She had had that spine spot of pain and it had behaved the same. Slow increase in pain, long duration and then suddenly gone! From her past experience, she's looking for a +8 quake and thinks US.

Okay, as you know, I have been reporting feeling terrible for the last two days. Right? Well, I thought the energy was easing back last night, but not so over my sleeping hours apparantly. I woke this morning, 6:15, in so much body pain, I could have sworn someone had beat me up overnight and had left me to die. Okay, both ears ringing, but left hurting. Head pain, center of forehead, left side back of the head. Left shoulder. Lower back. All stand outs. I feel very tired and feel little internal energy. Even my teeth hurt. Not looking forward to working...although it may be just what I need to do to work this stuff out of me.

Just two days away from adding more PRs to the picture and I don't know if what is hitting me now is for EQs this month, as it would seem, or for a month or two down the road. It has been taking longer between symptoms and events, but back in 94, 95, 96, events were hitting within 4, 9, 16 days and there's no reason this can't be the case again.

So, everyone, stay alert, take care and pray for God's mercy.
