See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Hello, earthquake!

Suela, did you feel it? It looks like it was centered right around Oakland/Berkeley.

eta: Ha, you did!

Over here it was very short but a good solid thumper. The whole building went brrrUNK.

Yeah, it made a lot more noise than they usually do. USGS doesn't have a magnitude yet. I'm thinking somewhere in the low 3s.

I think that's the most obvious one I've felt since moving here. And my new office is supposedly on more solid ground than the other.

We've got some sirens going, but that's it. No alarms or anything otherwise.

What is really odd is that this morning was the Great California ShakeOut earthquake drill, wasn't it?

Pretty sure the carrier was just thrown over the fence, busted open, and she went to hide in the bushes, crying at anyone who passed by.

There is an especially horrible place in hell for people who do that.

Yeah, that's what we said, too.

Because books.

I wish I lived closer. To the kitten, not the earthquake. A girl cat sounds nice.

Yup. How convenient!
