It's official, I have finally felt my first earthquake since moving to Berkeley. It was a 2.4 and happened at 9:37pm (PST). It felt and sounded like someone very big either fell on the floor or jumped really hard downstairs. It was quick. Right away, I walked across the hall to our neighbors and asked, "did you feel that too?" and Steven already had the website up that shows where the earthquake's epicenter was and its magnitude. It happened 1 mile NNE of Piedmont.

Yuck! I hope those kids had a good week off so they can be good with me for the next 3 weeks! |
She teaches math and yoga to high schoolers in East Oakland and now she lives in a house with 2 other married couples. Normally, this combination would seem strange, but she has adjusted to living in California and it all makes sense now.
