Just When You Thought it Was Over

I may be to blame for this. I actually thought a few days ago, “Hmmm. Wonder what happened to all those earthquakes we had? Must be over.”

So what happens? Sunday morning I’m lying in bed when creek-creek rumble-rumble. My heart nearly burst out of my chest.

To make it worse, this quake kept quietly rolling for several minutes. It felt more like an uncontrollable waterbed than anything.

Then it stopped. “Ah, thank God.”

Two minutes later, wall hangings started shaking in unison. A blanket covered one of my eyes.

My boyfriend stood in the doorway the exact moment it hit. “Can you feel that?”

“Can you see the whites of my eye?”

A few hours later I noticed Reno made Drudge. We were also the third story on the KTVU 10 O’clock News in San Francisco.

Two other quakes hit around 3am – didn’t feel those. How lucky for me – ugh!

I should really keep my mouth shut.
