5.6 Earthquake Close By
My living room shook and my refrigerator rocked on its legs as my 5th floor apartment endured a recent quake. It was a longer quake, so that’s what added to the excitement. While it was happening, I didn’t really think anything would go wrong, but I did wonder when it would stop.
People are in the hallways relieving their frazzled nerves by socializing. I did a loop downstairs and talked with several people, but then went back up to catch the reports on KRON4 News, the local station that is typically the first to report on such events.
I guess for one second I thought, what if this building collapses– I wonder if I’d survive. But then immediately after, I looked around for a bit, then bit into my fish fillet that I had just served up on a platter… Come on, priorities. Finish what you started, even if only a few bites. :-)
