Earthquakes?

I have been dreaming about Earthquakes lately. And when I say lately I have been dreaming about them almost every night. So strange, even so bad so that at 3am the other night when both the hubby and I were not able to sleep I rolled over to him and told him.
"Baby we really need to discuss an evacuation plan in case of an earthquake"
And then even lack of sleep does not deter his sense of humor
"Hey babe I have a GREAT idea, why do we not evacuate through the front door"

I think the reason I this has been on my mind so much is this weekend I am volunteering with the American Red cross doing a presentation about earthquake and fire preparedness out at Big Bear Lake (they were ravished with fires in 2003) and I have been watching TOO much of the discovery channel.
But in all seriousness. California is due for a HUGE quake and its starting to scare me a bit. Not so much the earthquake but the lack of being prepared. Its not even a matter of IF it will happen but WHEN will it happen.
If it happened in the middle of the night? What if it happened at work? How would we contact each other if the lines were down? How would I know he was OK? Would I go to his work if it happened during the day? He works in a hospital so there is no way he would leave work EVER if this happened he would be busy helping out.
The shit that goes through my head!
Ok I am a worry wart...

This is what dream Dictionary says

Earthquakes

If you live in an area prone to earthquakes and are used to them, this dream indicates minor difficulties that need to be resolved. But if you live in a place where earthquakes are rare, this dream implies a sudden and totally unexpected change in your circumstances—which could require some difficult adjustments at first, but will, in the long run, end in success and good fortune.

Oh and did I mention we live on a MAJOR fault line?

You know what? We dont have earthquakes in Texas..and the townhouse across the street for me is empty and I bet it would be way cheaper than what you guys pay now. In fact everything is cheaper here. This is the land of disposable income. So hitch up the U-haul and come on.

We do have tornados though. But as long as you have a mattress and a bath tub you will be fine.
