I can't even imagine how freaky that must be. No major damages in your neighborhood?

Shit, we get earthquakes all the time here. Plus we just had to deal with some fucked up wildfires.


BTW: Glad you're safe, if you feel any aftershocks go and brace yourself under a doorframe and away from things that might fall (chandeliers, drawers, cabinets)

Be patient my friend and don't panic. If you have Radio open it. You may find information for the first difficult times.

i guess you felt it a lot worse than we did here in trinidad. when it was going on, i was in work, and all the women were screaming which was extremely funny, but then one of them pushed me out of the way to take my spot under the door frame. no damage was doen here, but it lasted for a long time.
