El Temblor

First time for everything--even mini earthquakes. Is it horrible of me to say that it was cool? The seizmic tremor Friday night was very mild; nothing in the house fell or anything. Apparently they happen a few times a year. We´ve also had 2 more blackouts but they each lasted less than an hour. Just need a mild hurricane and then I´ll have a hattrick of extremely benign natural pseudo-disasters.

Not horrible at all to say it was cool! My first earthquake was also outside the States - while I was in Italy. That one was pretty major, though (translated to something like a 5.4 on the Richter), and happened in the middle of the night... Glad to hear yours was yet another "extremely benign natural pseudo-disaster." Miss you already. Keep posting!

i'd rather earthquakes than tornadoes or hurricanes! maybe it's cuz ca gets them often...and i think you guys are right by or along the faulty lines? if so, it would make sense why you guys get 'em often!
