that one we felt

yep, the earth quaked under our feet yesterday. not bad, it took just over a year of living in CA to experience an earthquake. and boy was it freaky. i actually felt dizzy after. one of my clients told me that it was the worst that she could remember in this area and she's 87 years old. evidently, there are two different kinds of earthquakes - rolling ones and 'not' rolling ones (whatever that means) and yesterday's was a rolling one. it went on for what seemed like forever. ... and everything i've learned as far as what to do when an earthquake hits ... went right out the window. i was at a new clients house (big and spacious) the earthquake hit, it took me a few seconds to figure out what it was and once it hit me 'it's an earthquake you idiot' - I FROZE. i then looked for a door jam but by then it was over. oh well, maybe next time i won't freeze.
