母親の茶道具の何とかが割れてしまった、というのと、母親の実家から譲り受けたにわの灯篭の上３分の２が倒れて壊れてしあった、というのと隣の家のブロック塀が倒れた、というのがオレの部屋の惨状以外の、身近な地震被害だった。人的被害が無かったというのは幸いだった。
近隣で割と目立ったものは瑞龍寺へ伸びる八丁道と言う参道の灯篭が軒並み倒れてしまっていた、というのがある。あと、近所の幹線道路沿いのブロック塀が倒れて歩道を歩くことができなかったというのと。
仕事始めで仕事に行った時、会社の事務所が酷いことになっていた、というのと敷地内の避雷針が傾いていた。オレの作業場、何しろ片付けが得意ではないので平生散らかっているのだが、年末、会社の納会の次の日に出社して、綺麗に片付けて掃除しておいた。１人で。
それがまた散らかってたらいやだなぁ、と思っていたら、割ときれいなままで、ただそこに使わずにおいてあるロッカーが倒れていたこと、建物が傾くとか何処か破損しているということはなかったのだが、梁に軒並み横方向に亀裂ができてしまっていた。
自宅から氷見の南部にある会社への通勤路も特に問題なく、1月6日時点でほぼ見た目日常に戻った感じではある。
発災直後、近所のセブンイレブンの棚の日本酒の多くが床に落ち割れ、酒臭い店内に客が殺到し、ミネラルウォーターとカップヌードルが早いうちに売り切れてしまったそうだ。そのセブンイレブン、確か北関東出身のオレより10数歳ぐらい若い夫婦が経営していて、それぞれの実家との縁も薄く、帰省することもない。まぁ、なんだ、頑張れ！って感じなんだが、その奥さんの方にそんな発災直後の話を聞いた。
国道8号線が新潟県内で崖が崩れ埋まってしまい通行不能になったり、高速道路にも不都合が出来たかなんかして、2，3日、県内一円外からの物流が停まっていたらしい。
幸い我が家、正月の御節料理やらなんやら、2，3日分の食料のストックにも不安は無く、住んでいるあたり、電気、水道が停まるということもなく、オレの部屋の片付けが済んだら、回復完了だった。
とはいえ、オレより何歳か若い上長の実家が七尾市内の海の前にあり、仕事始めの時に彼は出社してこなかった。人的無事は確認出来ていたのだが。
また高岡市の伏木地区に住む中学の同級生の女性。伏木という土地はざっくりいうと海岸の低地と段丘崖の上の二種類の地盤で、同級生の家は段丘崖の上の方にあるが、低地部分の液状化が酷く、水道が停まってしまって、彼女は余震も怖いししばらく車中泊の生活だったそうだ。いや、確認してないが今も続いているのかな？
年末に帰省していた妹だが、JRも雷鳥を運休してしまったのか、関西からの帰省客が一斉に脱出するように関西に帰ってしまったからなのか、金沢からの雷鳥の切符が取れず、彼女は名古屋行きの白鷺で米原まで行ってそこから西宮に帰っていった。２日の事だ。
とりあえず、知人たちに人的被害はなかったが、そこはかとなく暗澹たる気分になってしまう。

One of her mother's tea utensils had broken, the top two-thirds of a Japanese lantern she had inherited from her mother's family had fallen over and broken, and the block wall of the house next door had broken. The fact that I had collapsed was damage caused by an earthquake that was familiar to me, other than the devastation in my room. It was fortunate that there were no injuries.
One thing that was quite noticeable in the neighborhood was that all the lanterns on the approach road to Zuiryuji Temple, called Hatchomichi, had fallen down. Also, the block wall along the main road in my neighborhood had collapsed, making it impossible to walk on the sidewalk.
When I went to work for the first time, the company's office was in terrible condition, and the lightning rod on the premises was tilted. My workplace is always a mess because I'm not good at tidying up, but at the end of the year, I came to work the day after the company closing party and cleaned it up. Alone.
I thought I wouldn't want it to be a mess again, but I found that it was still relatively clean, but the lockers that had been left there unused had fallen over, and the building wasn't leaning or damaged in any way. However, horizontal cracks had formed across the beams.
There were no particular problems commuting from my home to my office in the southern part of Himi, and as of January 6th, things seemed to be almost back to normal.
Immediately after the disaster, many of the sake bottles on the shelves at a nearby 7-Eleven fell to the floor and cracked. Customers rushed into the store, which smelled of alcohol, and mineral water and cup noodles quickly sold out. That 7-Eleven is run by a couple who are about 10 years younger than me, from the northern Kanto region, and they have only a weak connection to their respective families, and they never return home. Well, whatever, good luck! That's what I felt, but I asked his wife about what happened right after the disaster.
It seems that National Route 8 was impassable due to a collapsed cliff in Niigata Prefecture, and there were also problems with the expressway, so logistics from outside the prefecture were stopped for the past few days.
Fortunately, I don't have to worry about having enough food for two or three days at my house, including New Year's special dishes, and there are no electricity or water outages in the area where I live, and I've finished cleaning up my room. Well, recovery was complete.
However, my superior, who is several years younger than me, has a family home in front of the sea in Nanao City, and he did not come to work when I started work. However, I was able to confirm that everyone was safe.
Another female junior high school classmate who lives in the Fushiki district of Takaoka City. Roughly speaking, the land called Fushiki consists of two types of ground: lowland on the coast and on top of terraced cliffs. My classmate's house is on the top of terraced cliffs, but the lowlands have been severely liquefied and the water supply has been cut off. Apparently, she was afraid of aftershocks and had to stay in her car for a while. No, I haven't checked, but I wonder if it's still going on?
My sister went back to her hometown at the end of the year, but she couldn't get a ticket for the Raicho from Kanazawa, perhaps because JR had also suspended its Raicho service, or perhaps because all the returning tourists from Kansai were evacuating all at once. , she took the Shirasagi bound for Nagoya to Maibara, and from there returned to Nishinomiya. It happened on the second day.
For the time being, there were no injuries to my acquaintances, but I feel a bit gloomy.
