So there is a movie being filmed here next week. Still don't think the creep outside has anything to do with it, but regardless, guess who's in it???

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson! Haha!!

But......this whole area is going to be on LOCK DOWN next Thursday! Everyone on my street got a letter today from the production company saying that they will be filming here from July 21st - July 28th, but on July 23rd (next Thursday) they're going to have a helicopter taking off and landing here from 8:00pm - 12:30am. My street and all surrounding streets are SHUT DOWN starting at 7:00pm through 4:00am on Friday.

You'd think the least they could do is tell us the name of the movie. Nope. My neighbor (bless her heart) walked over there earlier today and spoke with someone who had a Staff shirt on. He told her the movie that's being filmed here next week "is with The Rock." He said that "some of us will be offered the choice to stay at a hotel" (not sure if that meant they pay for it or not).

She said he told her that "they're going to be coming with a bunch of huge trucks and trailers and that there's going to be so much security. Kevin Hart, The Rock...it's gonna be completely insane next week."

^^^Everything in quotes are her words to me.

I'll take a pic of the letter and block out the personal details. Hold please!

Oh, and after looking into it, I found the name of the movie. Central Intelligence.

Central Intelligence is an action buddy comedy starring Kevin Hart and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson; Johnson’s character gets Hart’s character, an accountant, involved in a CIA investigation. Filming is set to start sometime in May, and pre-production work has already begun.

My brother-a commercial pilot for Carribean flights, (who also had been stationed in PR for 10 years as a Navy Pilot), said last night that everyone at his hotel AND at the airport, we're talking about this rash of quakes. He's actually going to be there for a few days to go visit friends at the base.
He said he's only felt one of them-and probably wouldn't have felt any had his friend not felt it & brought it up.

As an aside-my eldest daughter and I spent 7 days visiting my brother & sister-in-law back when he was stationed there. Lol, we would have stayed longer, but could only take so much of my SIL's giggles ;). We had a BLAST down there; snorkeling, driving my brother's fancy little sports car outside the base (though, trying to get back IN was a bitch!! Luckily, my brother was like the 3rd highest up there!!), going to the Rainforest, flirting with guys at the Officer's Club.... flying around in his rickety old Piper, US Scare-ways almost crashing in the Bahamas on the way home & my daughter singing to everyone to calm us down... Aaahhhh, "THOSE were the days, my friends" ("...We thought they'd never end, We'd sing and dance, Forever and a day, We'd live the life we chose, We'd fight and never lose, For we were YOUNG and Sure to have our way!!"

I've been having a lot of nightmares lately. Not all, not even most, being apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic, but a couple of them could be considered doomy I suppose. One involving a tsunami. That was about a month ago. And was reoccurring.

The others were more tragic IMO. Involving family and such.

Omg I absolutely LOVE creamsicles! Haha!! Never had a creamsicle sundae though. Yum!

Heeeyyy everyone! hi

I am finally up. Ever have one of those dreams where you want to see what it is you're dreaming but you feel like you're gonna have a heart attack if you do? I had one of those tonight. It was surreal. It's like I could hear what was going on but it was completely faint that I couldn't make it out and everything was black.

 Quoting: CuriousSeeker


I dream of "falling"-and suddenly wake up with a start, lol, scaring the crap out of my kitty,...OR, not being able to catch my breath-but that's usually a nightmare "flashback" to when I was assaulted many years ago. (He'd put duct tape on my mouth & I was all stopped up from a cold + crying-I'll, unfortunately, never forget that feeling of not being able to breathe). But, no heart attacks I'm aware of.

I've always had an extremely active and lucid dream-life; to the point that my kids every morning at breakfast wanted to know "where" I went and "what" happened the night before. They're like a bunch of weird adventures-lately, mainly post-apocalyptic adventures, lol!! But, that's not THAT unusual considering the 2 dreams I had when I was either 15 or 16, both detailed, major disaster scenarios, that my best friend had me write as "creative writing short stories" for a CW class we were taking. One was a huge volcanic eruption, (which I knew very little of back then-but it would have been most similar to a super-volcano eruption); the other was earthquakeS-I seem to remember there was like a "series" of 3-4 major eruptions-and their aftermath. Again, being from Florida, I wasn't real familiar with quakes-which is one reason K (my friend), wanted me to write everything down. She HAD experienced a quake near the country she was from.

I feel like I'm blessed these days though that I'm able to kind of "direct" my dreams-so when something really bad is happening-I can either go in another direction, or wake-up. I started being able to do this when I began meditating & if I stop meditating for awhile, I can't "direct" my dreams. Weird, I know. But my Son has inherited more than our genetic disorder, he dreams almost as much as I do, and has found he can do the same thing when he meditates. Even just doing Yoga Nidra (kind of a short breath-meditation that can make you feel like you just had 8 hours of sleep!), has worked. Considering how many of my dreams start to go in a "bad" place-believe me, being able to control them has been a huge blessing!!

Simple: I make my "Creamsicle Sundae" with Orange Sherbert, natural vanilla bean yogurt ice cream (or just ice cream-vanilla bean is best ;), chilled mandarin orange cut into small pieces, real whipped cream...uhmm, and a rather unhealthy, but tasty, maraschino cherry on top.

The kids & I "invented" a bunch of different "smoothies" and ice cream-Sherbert sundaes and "floats" (drinks-ginger ale, sometimes flavored with grenadine or just maraschino cherry juice, plus a scoop of ice cream & a scoop of Sherbert).
My 2nd husband also had 3 children and one way we'd keep 4 girls, (and even sometimes our 2 little ADD boys), busy during the summer was "inventing" different dishes-especially deserts. The smoothies, etc were their favorites. wink

sun oh goodness!! Sun is up!! I'd better get into gear-trash, shower, blood tests at 7:30, then back home to sleep awhile before they admit me later today. Hopefully the laparotomy tomorrow am will show us what's going on, because they're completely baffled, lol!! Not the first time. I had one doctor in Alabama actually put, in red, "ALIEN?" On my patient chart!! ;)

Not necessarily. There were a couple of smaller aftershocks in Japan before the big one hit.

EDIT: Remember, California now lies on a subduction zone, the Newport-Inglewood fault. Discovered by USGS earlier this month:

'The Newport-Inglewood fault appears to sit on a 30-million-year-old subduction zone, so it is surprising that it maintains a significant pathway through the crust.'

Uh oh, only 8km deep...foreshock?

4 smaller magnitude aftershocks already. Highly unlikely I'd think
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55137666


Not necessarily. There were a couple of smaller aftershocks in Japan before the big one hit.

EDIT: Remember, California now lies on a subduction zone, the Newport-Inglewood fault. Discovered by USGS earlier this month:

'The Newport-Inglewood fault appears to sit on a 30-million-year-old subduction zone, so it is surprising that it maintains a significant pathway through the crust.'

I am glad you found it useful, LAF! hf

I know...I am going to have a hard time falling to sleep tonight. What if we get a bigger quake next?

I hope not.

Heeeyyy everyone! hi

I am finally up. Ever have one of those dreams where you want to see what it is you're dreaming but you feel like you're gonna have a heart attack if you do? I had one of those tonight. It was surreal. It's like I could hear what was going on but it was completely faint that I couldn't make it out and everything was black.
 Quoting: CuriousSeeker


I dream of "falling"-and suddenly wake up with a start, lol, scaring the crap out of my kitty,...OR, not being able to catch my breath-but that's usually a nightmare "flashback" to when I was assaulted many years ago. (He'd put duct tape on my mouth & I was all stopped up from a cold + crying-I'll, unfortunately, never forget that feeling of not being able to breathe). But, no heart attacks I'm aware of.

I've always had an extremely active and lucid dream-life; to the point that my kids every morning at breakfast wanted to know "where" I went and "what" happened the night before. They're like a bunch of weird adventures-lately, mainly post-apocalyptic adventures, lol!! But, that's not THAT unusual considering the 2 dreams I had when I was either 15 or 16, both detailed, major disaster scenarios, that my best friend had me write as "creative writing short stories" for a CW class we were taking. One was a huge volcanic eruption, (which I knew very little of back then-but it would have been most similar to a super-volcano eruption); the other was earthquakeS-I seem to remember there was like a "series" of 3-4 major eruptions-and their aftermath. Again, being from Florida, I wasn't real familiar with quakes-which is one reason K (my friend), wanted me to write everything down. She HAD experienced a quake near the country she was from.

I feel like I'm blessed these days though that I'm able to kind of "direct" my dreams-so when something really bad is happening-I can either go in another direction, or wake-up. I started being able to do this when I began meditating & if I stop meditating for awhile, I can't "direct" my dreams. Weird, I know. But my Son has inherited more than our genetic disorder, he dreams almost as much as I do, and has found he can do the same thing when he meditates. Even just doing Yoga Nidra (kind of a short breath-meditation that can make you feel like you just had 8 hours of sleep!), has worked. Considering how many of my dreams start to go in a "bad" place-believe me, being able to control them has been a huge blessing!!
 Quoting: LostAndFound60


I have sometimes felt like I have been aware in my dreams. When I dream, I dream in color, depending on whether it's day or night. If it's night it's monogrammed dark blue like it should be. If it's day, it's all brightly vivid colors -- very much like you're in a dream, which you are.

The dreams where I felt I could control myself the most is when I've been flying. They say that flying in your dreams is mostly indicative of having an out of body experience, which may be likely because I have been able to think "now, I am going to fly down" and I do, but it's the strangest feeling when it happens because you feel lighter than air but you're still yourself. Very hard to explain.

I have had the occasional earthquake dream as well - one where I was in my bed and I lurched forward and fell back by about 10 feet - as if there were a 10 foot drop as the result of one part of the fault line dropping. It was so scary I woke up and realized it didn't actually happen.

But, alas...I must get some sleep! I could go on and on... hi

Good night!
