Watch out for earthquakes

In which I call rushthatspeaks, because it's an autumn-bright afternoon in Harvard Square and I love them.

Rush's phone: *rings*

No one picks up; I keep on walking down Mass. Ave.

My phone: *rings*

Rush-That-Speaks: Sorry, I missed your call because of the earthquake.

I didn't even feel it, perhaps because I was driving at the time.

I hope you and yours and the relevant houses, etc. are all okay.

It sounds as if it was felt much more in NYC than here. One friend of mine on FB said he thought for a moment the house was going to fall into bits.

As far as I know, everybody's fine. Perceptions seem to have been wildly varied, even within a city. In Cambridge, I didn't feel the quake at all. In downtown Boston, a friend of my mother's was evacuated from her building. I have no idea what it would have been like in Lexington. Possibly nothing.
