earthquake
So, here's some news for you. This afternoon my mother and I were talking in the kitchen and we felt a boom. We had no idea what it was. My brother and and I went outside and our neighbors were wondering the same thing. What in the world had caused that boom? It rattled windows and was felt very clearly.
It was an earthquake. Or rather, we were feeling the results of one near Richmond.

Posted by: james micah at December 10, 2003 11:38 AMi remember witnessing/experiencing tremors back home in indiana, basically leftovers from earthquakes somewhere in the region. one instance was a home alone deal. refridgerator rattling, etc. talk about apocalyptic moments in the life of a child who's watched A Thief in the Night a few too many times for her own good.
