Oh man...just a few minutes ago, here I am, innocentlly sitting at the computer, fulfilling my Hostly duties, and JOLT!!! We had a rather large, but VERY quick, earthquake!
So, I sat for a moment, waiting to see when it was done if it was just a lull and was going to start back up again (which it didn't), and realized quite suddenly that poor Trixie hasn't even been here a full 24 hours, and she's already experienced her first earthquake!!
Yeah...just try to tell HER that earthquakes don't happen very often!! :shock: Poor girl!!
All of our animals just FROZE when it happened, and looked at me for comfort...poor babies!! So I went around, of course, and pet each and everyone here, after comforting my poor daughter, who was standing on her bed, eyes as wide as platters! Wow...
Impressive jolt, given how quick it was...it was literally MAYBE a second long, and it felt like the building was bounced right off it's foundation. Thank goodness for regulated earthquake-safe buildings!
