4.0 at 10:47 am? How much more of a backup alarm clock could I possibly ask for?

Seriously, parties shake the building more. The garbage truck shakes the building more. This was just one little jolt, and for some reason, it woke me up. I didn't even think it was an earthquake until I went back and checked the site.

And I didn't even feel the 3.5 aftershock.

Most east coasters are really afraid of earthquakes, in my experience.

"What's going on?" Michael asked.

"It's an earthquake," I said with some certainty.

"Really!? I'm finally feeling one after living here for 6 years!" he exclaimed. He's from Maryland, among other places.

"It seems like it's about over," I said.

"No, don't stop! I'm always asleep when they happen!" he said.

"Shut up."
