Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated

I saw that quake posted in the sinkhole thread this morning, but didn't mention it because a little while later someone had posted that it had been deleted...

On a side note, these kids are lighting off those M-80's right near my house. Every few minutes I am jumping out of my skin! Not good for my heart...sounds like an explosion...

I don't like those things. They seem pointless to me. No pretty colors/lights, just an obnoxious BOOM!

My nerves are just so shot lately...

Oh, I should also mention, and forgive me for not mentioning this yesterday. It could very well be nothing, however as the OP of this thread, I suppose it's worth throwing out there....

Yesterday was an awful, awful day/night for me physically. I didn't mention it here because I just assumed it was the heat/humidity having an effect on whatever autoimmune disorder I have. I was extremely nauseous ALL day. I even threw up twice. But even after I threw up (gross, sorry) I was still nauseous. I barely made it through the day at work and when I finally got home I was out of it physically. I laid on my couch and that was that. My girlfriend wanted to come by and visit me and I had to tell her not to because I didn't have the strength/energy to get up to open the door. I had sat up once to take a sip of my water and as soon as I sat up I felt like I was going to throw up. And I had a TERRIBLE migraine.

The reason I am mentioning this now is that someone had posted this thread last night...

Thread: Craving Popcorn is a sign of impending earthquake

I haven't even bumped it (yet) but it made me curious so I started looking into it.

I came across this, which I found very interesting in regards to both quakes and solar activity...

The magnetic effects of the sun and earth can affect pulse, blood pressure and attitude. The earth responds in kind magnetically to abrupt changes in the sun and human beings also are affected by EMF changes prior to a major earthquake. Prior to earth changes, people that are sensitive to events get migraine headaches, stiff neck muscles, nausea and acid reflux.

Doctors are saying that before and after a major earthquake there may be a neurological “mismatch” between the balance mechanism in the vestibular system of the inner ear and sensory signals from nerves in the eyes and feet.

This can trigger various symptoms of nausea, dizziness, and headaches that feel similar to migraine. In severe cases people experience clumsiness, falling and vomiting.

I found a lot of the info in that link interesting. Again, I have no idea if what I was feeling yesterday means anything. But what I can tell you is that I have NEVER been that nauseous in my life...not even when I was pregnant with my daughter. And my headache was so intense that I couldn't have my friend over or even get on the phone with someone extremely important to me.

Hopefully this is nothing at all. But I think it said after these feelings, within 72 hours....

So I felt obligated to share that. Who knows. But it doesn't hurt to share the way we are feeling on certain days when we know our body and our body is behaving differently.

OMG I crave popcorn all the time last week when we were having all those quakes I couldn't get enough of it! and this happens to me

Thanks Zombie and Simple! I was running out the door when the alert came in.

Eeeek!! Finally Thursday. And early payday. I get to go get the rest of the parts I need and build my new PC. Just have to get:

Hard drive.
RAM
CPU cooler
Power Supply
Windows 7.

They will have to chain me to a desk with a Windows 8 machine and even then I will use all my willpower to fight it. No one should have to go through using that horribly awful operating system. And Mac OS X Mavericks isn't that hot. I hate it. I only got into Mac in 2011 because I loved their blue glowy scrollbars on Snow Leopard. Little did I know that they got rid of them on the new Apple iMac I got that year. So I have been secretly hating them ever since.

Simple, do you think we are going to see history repeat itself after that AZ quake?
