*Many people have been affected by the fire that hit San Bruno last night. San Bruno was where I grew up. I know this neighborhood and have many family & friends that are still here. I hope & pray that everyone is okay. Every beep or ring from my phone gives me this horrible feeling but most calls have been positive. My old roommate's gf did lose her entire house and she's still missing her dog.But her entire family is accounted for and I really hope that Lola gets back to her. Its one thing to see disasters happen on the news and not be closely affected by it, but when it hits home, it's a whole different situation.
