Just woken up...

I'm not awake properly, but there's been an earthquake in Japan? Is everyone okay? [livejournal.com profile] jen_in_japan? [livejournal.com profile] rai_daydreamer? I'm not sure which part of Japan the earthquake was, and where you are...

I'm glad you three are alright. :-)

I take it the typhoon isn't causing you guys problems. I hope it isn't at least.

That came really close too! And the fact that it soaked the ground has meant the earthquake triggered a lot of mudslides...a really bad combination of natural events...

Um...I hope you don't mind me asking, Jen, but I'm...dying of curiousity. What is going on in your icon? Is Superman lost in a maze? What is that rock in the middle?

hope you don't mind me cut in...
That maze thing is a kind of japanese garden art.

And everyone is alive! YEAH!

Thank you! I was very curious, and kept looking at the icon, wondering. It looked like a maze, but I wasn't sure.

You are a doll for answering my question. :)

*grins* It's an icon [livejournal.com profile] naughty__pixie made me--it's a Zen rock garden in the background. I like to use it for anything Japan-related. :)

A typhoon as well!! Geez, what's next?

Too many hills, so no tornadoes...but maybe they could manage a big flood? Hail?

Plague of frogs? :)

Ack! First the typhoon, now an earthquake? Japan is getting the crap kicked out of it! It's such a relief to hear that you and DaMo and [livejournal.com profile] rai_daydreamer and all the other LJ Japan folk are all right, though. *gives you more hugs* And I hope that not too many other people were hurt in the country. O.O

On a more lighthearted note ... you have a Superman-in-a-zen-garden icon! Is that from fanart or from an actual comic?

*hugs her icon* It's designed by [livejournal.com profile] naughty__pixie, and it's canon art (I think!) superimposed over the garden. Isn't it pretty?

And yes, Japan is having a tough string right now. That area should be feeling aftershocks for a week or so. It's weird, it gives you this feeling like the whole Earth is just a big bell that someone strikes now and then and it resonates--not a very pleasant feeling...

I'm used to typhoon because we have had many of them every year. But big earthquake like that makes me worried... I hope aftershocks will quie down soon.
Thank you for your kind words. :)

Oh, thank you very much, Angeloz! *hugs*
The typhoon which hit me yesterday stopped many trnsport facillities... it was just lucky for me that I could move by train. :)

I'm glad you survived the typhoon as well, Rai!
