My MSN convo with Loyalj from last night. It's pretty much a liveblog account of what we now know was a propane explosion. But at the time I didn't know what the fuck it was. Note the time - the first explosion was at 3:48am.

3:48:03 AM kat: omg
3:48:06 AM kat: i just heard a bomb
3:48:42 AM kat: or a gunshot
3:49:34 AM loyalj: :O 
3:49:40 AM loyalj: how do you know it's one of those?
3:49:52 AM kat: the whole house shook and so did my furniture
3:50:43 AM loyalj:  oh wow
3:50:54 AM loyalj: not a gunshot
3:51:00 AM loyalj: probably not a bomb.
3:51:04 AM loyalj: is it a storm there?
3:51:41 AM kat: no
3:51:52 AM kat: what is it then?
3:52:46 AM loyalj: thunder i bet
3:53:02 AM kat: no. no rain. and thunder doesn't shake my windows
3:53:27 AM loyalj: but if it was a lightning strike that was close.
3:54:00 AM kat: OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
3:54:02 AM kat: OMGMOMGOMGO
3:54:04 AM kat: the sound

3:54:29 AM loyalj: ({)(K) 
3:54:34 AM kat: it's not thunder. it's louder. like a rumbling.
3:54:41 AM loyalj: but a bomb? in high park?
3:55:09 AM kat: maybe someone is in the street. it sounds like that is going to strike again.
3:55:29 AM kat: i'm scared to look
3:55:33 AM kat: i have to turn off my light

3:58:44 AM kat: front
3:58:58 AM kat: i can't see anything
3:59:00 AM loyalj: the sound is still going, or happened once?
