Ok, that tsunami warning we just got on our phones here in the Bay Area freaked me the hell out. I miss the sirens.
But it did at least resolve the question that my chair creaking was in fact an earthquake, and not the mouse I thought it was.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Having worked in in-patient rehab for a few years now, I could embroider a "Friends Don't Let Friends Get UHC" sampler, so I could just tap the sign

I think everyone is well out of the potential impacted zones, at least here in the city. I'm not sure of those south of us. Time of impact is forecast for 12:10 in SF.

I’m far enough inland to be fine

Tsunami warning has been cleared. Looks like we're all fine. At least in terms of tsunami danger.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That was alarming to read about after it happened. Kind of glad I didn't know while I was happening.

I'm glad the tsunami turned out to be a dud -- I recently watched the National Geographic channel multi-night documentary on the big Indonesian tsunami, which is now like 20 years back. Holy cow!
We had just enough snow in Boston last night that I had to brush my car windows off, but the sidewalks and roads were clear. Just enough to be pretty and not a bother.
