Some moments in my life; because sometimes I am the least reliable witness of my own existence.

WHOA 5.4 Hold On!
Apparently we just had an earthquake. I say "apparently" because I had literally just hopped on my bike to go down the street to the market. I actually saw the electrical lines sway but thought it was a really strong wind that I could not feel because of the tall building that was next to me. At work, the building was evacuated. Not because it was just that strong; because the building isn't that strong. Turns out this particular building has been gutted and remodeled so much that the only structurally sound pillars are the corners and mid line. Our area is basically suspended over a hollow room with nothing to really support it. My co-workers said that the place was swing like wreath on a door. so bad. Glad I missed it. All that and the two dogs we currently have on stage didn't even react or predict this shake coming. hmmmph.
