At
4AM I was jolted awake by a 5.9 earthquake! My eyes popped open and I felt as
though the walls were going to fold in upon me. Since Meek had fallen asleep on the sofa, I practically
jumped out of bed because of the shaking and lack of his presence! I walked easily
to the doorway where Meek arrived seconds later. Hugged me and we realized this was for real.
It probably last 10-15 second, a lifetime when you’re
scared. After the walls stopped shaking Meek walk around the apartment to see that
things were okay. And to inspect a
clanging sound, which was the pipes in our walls banging into each other. Nothing fell or really even moved! Finally the clanging pipes stopped and we went back to bed; tried to
fall back to sleep. I was way to
keyed up so I tossed and turned for over an hour before finally relaxing enough to get back to
sleep.
