I hear fireworks, but I’m not going to get dressed to go outside and watch. It doesn’t sound like a professional show anyway, probably some Joe off the street blowing up stuff smuggled into the country.
My county in #SoCal doesn’t even allow individual fireworks (I think there’s one city that has an exception), so this is a little different. -

On yesterday's mall visit, we found a "travel store" that had luggage. Since my luggage (but not the contents) was damaged during the flight from #SoCal to #Sac, I went into the store, but their pricing was too expensive for me. I'm not carrying gold bullion and I don't need to spend like it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_bar -

@colinthemathmo @art I don't think there's a unified meaning. Partly because the definition of "town" varies so much from state to state.
However, I would consider a "tiny town" to be a place that is outside of a major urban area, a place with a relatively small population. Some other characteristics would depend on how the local economy is structured and the distance to an urbanized area. For example, Idyllwild, California, is close enough to the #SoCal urban area that weekend visits are possible, so I'd expect tourism to be a big part of their economy. -

Tsunami.gov did not issue a warning after tonight's 7.1 #SoCal earthquake. Also, I believe that the recent 6.4 is now considered a foreshock (but I'm not a geologist, so I could be way wrong). -

These don't seem to be felt over super-wide areas. I'm working in Sacramento and I haven't felt any of them, despite #SoCal family members reporting 4 quakes, including a 7.1. -

I saw some movies in this theater (La Puente’s Star Theater) before it switched to pornos. It was grimy. I remember spilled popcorn all over the floor. But it was a great place for a family with more kids than money to drop off the kids for a few hours.

The better movie house was the Covina Fox Twin, because they had two screens, so we didn’t all have to see the same two movies. But it costed more.
I don’t remember the name of the theater in San Pedro. It was okay, but parking was across the street and drivers seemed to go scarily fast.

@sean Yeah, #SoCal does have some delicious food. I’ve never heard a #NorCal resident say that it tops their food. (Both are good for the same reason: gateway to the Pacific Rim and Latin America, so multiple food traditions intermingle.)

PG&E is more #NorCal. They aren't seen in most of #SoCal. But if SCE and DWP follow suit, 100+F temperatures without cooling could be unpleasant -

Mark called to tell me that his girlfriend really likes her county job. She doesn't regret leaving $EMPLOYER at all. Now he's applying for a job in another department of the same #SoCal county. If he gets it, he'll be gone before his 14 years anniversary with the agency. -

I’m not a fan of carpets because they accumulate dust and dander, but whenever I talk to co-workers from Chicago or the US Northeast, they consider carpet essential. Maybe my view is an artifact of living in #SoCal. -

For whatever reason, the tracker doesn’t seem to record #sleep data very often when I’m on a Pacific time zone schedule. I’m going to try to migrate myself to something more Central time zone appropriate, which will help with communicating with my kids and grandkids (who are in #NE and #MO).
PS: #GS2, who had been in #SoCal for five years, moved back home to #sonOne’s house. -

@ivesen Last month was the first time in years that the average #SoCal house price was less than the same month a year earlier. (Still 2-3x where it should be.) -

#Daddy_A shares (in response to a news story about a child missing from the family yard): When we were in #SoCal, we were afraid to let #Little_Boy_A play in the yard. In the #Midwest, the neighbors are watching him as much as I am.
Curiously, he did not say what he felt about the child's safety in the Phoenix, #AZ, area. -

#sonTwo’s in-laws are coming back to #MO to help care for #GS3 for a few days during and after my daughter-in-law’s surgery. Though I would love to be there, a trip from #SoCal right now is a little hard right now. -

Temperatures used to drop by 30-35F in the Summer within half an hour after sundown in my part of #SoCal. I haven't been here in a while, so I can't say whether that's still true. -

Got a series of texts and a phone call from a relative I never knew. I had to ask who she was.
Turns out she’s the one with the 21 year old son that threatened to kill her. He flew to #SoCal and wants help packing and shipping his stuff home. I’m 100 miles away without a car, so he’s on his own. She should tell him to get a job and stay where he is. -

@guizzy Plumbers were making up to $60/hour in some parts of #SoCal in the #1990s. I still don't make that 25 years later.
