Real English 10-wiped out

I filed my taxes at the tax office yesterday.  It was my first time to do it by computer (e-tax), and it was easier than I expected. And also much faster.  I plan to do it the same way next year.

And at the tax office, I ran into an old friend.  
My friend said, "Glenn, is everything OK? You look wiped out!"
I replied, "For the past couple of weeks, I have been up to my ears in receipts! That's all! With a few days of rest, I am sure I will be fine! Thanks for your concern."

This Monday, the 11th, marks the two year memorial of the Tohoku Earthquake and the Tsunami which triggered the nuclear disaster.  That tsunami wiped out many towns...
What were you doing at 2:46pm when the earthquake hit?
I was teaching Mr. T at that time.  

This weekend, I would like to take some time to remember what happened that day and the days after...It is important to remember, because we must never forget.
