There was an earthquake at about 3:30 am this morning. It was only about 3 point something on the rictor scale, so there was no damage or anything of that sort.
Needless to say, I was obviously woken up by it, or rather by the rattling of my bedroom door when the house shook. Now what I love is that I don't go and run for cover. Instead, upon waking up to my entire house moving, I lie in bed and tell myself, "Oh it doesn't seem that bad, I'll just stay in bed and go back to sleep."
Greeaaaaat .... so what happens when we get one that's a 9 on the rictor scale? Will I just tell myself it will be over soon and have the house collapse on top of me?
