Cool Earthquake Just Hit
I guess I would not think they are “cool” if I got hurt, but this was a nice rolling earthquake right now, about 8:43 pm PST. I’m working on computer and hear the windows tweakiing, and the ground is moving like a carnival playhouse (not up and down like some quakes, just back and forth). White Dog is whining (so what else is new) and now sitting behind my back, shaking.
It was a nice interlude to a relaxing weekend- no big deal. I like these kind of quakes better on workdays- middle of day, when I can watch the folks pour out off office building (LA Times HQ Buildig)
Aw, poor White Dog. My cats hid under the bed for an hour after the quake.
