EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!!


THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN TWITTER BREAKS!!!!!!!! COME BACK TWITTER!!!!!!

That was not a fun quake. The last big one we had was rolling, lasted like 30 seconds, but was like riding a wave. This one was jolty and shaky, not at all smooth. I wasn't born in California and I've not exactly grown up with earthquakes, nor have I been through a very big one, and I hope I don't ever have to be. So I don't handle them with the most grace.

This time I was sitting here on the couch typing the last post and putting on a base coat on my nails at the same time. You never really know when you're feeling an earthquake or if you're just feeling a phantom quake when you're me, so when I started to feel all shaky, I wondered if I was just smelling too many fumes from the nail polish. Then it got jolty. Then I spread myself out as if making myself wider would do any good, but didn't really move. More like I just braced myself against the air. I always say stupid shit like "YEAH! It's happening!" like someone asked me if I was feeling an earthquake a the moment. I can't explain my logic of my earthquake readiness, but that's what I did.

This one lasted about 15 seconds and was on and off jolty. It almost warranted a move under a doorway since I don't have any tables except a glass one that I would never trust to save me in a quake, but I had an open bottle of nail polish and didn't want to have to clean that up if it didn't really end up being something major. Thankfully it wasn't, everyone is fine and Boyfriend is very Gen Kill looking right now.

Please come back Twitter, the world is ending without you...
