Watch out for earthquakes

In which I call [livejournal.com profile] 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.

Ho. Ly. Shit.

Not today, please.

*hugs* Glad you and [livejournal.com profile] rushthatspeaks are okay. We had broken windows, acoustic tiles, books falling, the works (at work). Don't know what home is going to be like, and don't want Nicole to worry about it. Sigh.

Earthquakes are no fun, to say the least!

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.

I missed your call because of the earthquake.

That's certainly one of the better excuses. I hope you and yours are unstirred, if shaken.
