Earthquake!!!

First thing I heard about an earthquake was a text from my older sister to my mother, saying, "We didn't feel the earthquake, but it did wake us up."






Yeah, I have no clue what she meant, either.

Probably that the shaking woke them from sleep, but didn't register in their consciousness. That can happen if it takes you a few seconds to drift upward from a sleeping state.

Geez, how did you not feel it?

It's apparently been a life long problem. I was living in Seattle when Mount St Helens went off in 1979 (? I think, I was like 2), and my mom has always delighted in telling people I slept through that. She always said it with this incredulous look on her face, too, like it was really a big deal. I wouldn't know, I was asleep!
