Holy Fires Everywhere!

This is getting scary! The fires are everywhere. Yesterday, my office was evacuated due to the proximity of the local fires. Before we actually got evacuated, we were all sitting at our desks inhaling this awful smoke infesting our building through the air conditioning ducts. It was gross! People were coughing, eyes were itching, it was madness.
Late last night we received a phone call from our office (this new automated system we have, kinda like the reverse 911 calls they have been talking about on the news) asking us to refrain from coming into work until 10 am. The office manger wanted to take some time accessing the air quality before having 200+ employees come in to the building. But this leads me to wonder...what is to close for comfort? The fires right now are burning at 30 containment and are less than 1 mile away. Sure, they are not burning in our direction, but is the smoke and debris not as dangerous and second hand smoke? I don't get it, I mean really, I get cigarettes are bad for you since they are dipped in chemicals, but I could only imagine the chemicals being released by burning buildings. Anyway, it appears that we have been given the green light and are expected to report to work. BUMMER!

On a pregnancy note, CRAMPS! They won't stop. Last night as I lay in bed trying to fall asleep, I experienced 3 sharp pains a few seconds apart. Umm...not sure what that was. Today, I still feel the stretching pain and feel extremely bloated. But no other symptoms. Where is my morning sickness? just kidding, kinda. :) So now as I approach my last 5 days of this madness, I need to be extra careful not to confuse PMS with anything else. I mean the cramps could just be from that. Again, truth and time. (I am beginning to hate that saying).
