okay, there is a huge-ass fire in san diego at the moment. i live in mira mesa and it's extremely close to my house. there is smoke all over the sky. you can smell the smoke outside. just huge huge plumes of brown smoke covering the sky. sometimes the sun gets covered by it. it's spreading really fast because of the santa ana winds which you can totally feel outside. the fire is close to us and it's spreading towards us.

melissa and i are the only ones home at the moment, but we've got places to go to if they tell us to evacuate. one of the evactuation centers is mira mesa high school which is pretty close to us. so we're thinking that if one of the evacuation centers is mira mesa high school, then the fire hopefully shouldn't be coming too close to us. anyway, the sky is all brown and orange and i'm starting to get really freaked out. so i'm going to post this blog and turn off my computer so i can be ready to grab it if we do need to evacuate. so obviously, i won't be on aim; just call my cell if you need me.
