I really hate earthquakes!!

Especially when they wake me up at 5 am!

It took me forever to clean up the glass from the lamp that broke. We had some books and a few other random things fall, but overall not much damage since even though it was strong, it wasn't a very long one (read the stats).

I highly recommend the Humanitarian Early Warning Service site as a place to find out about what's happened/happening all over the world. It says it's a Global Multi-Hazard Watch Service to Support Humanitarian Preparedness (developed by The World Food Programme).

There's also the U.S. Geological Survey site (which is where the HEWS site sent me for information on our earthquake this morning).

Be well.

have you ever read anything about women being more sensitive to earthquakes than men? i would be interested in those stats, especially after that time when there was a quake and you and i *totally* felt it and the boys didn't... the number of times i've said to matt, 'did you feel that?'!
