Earthquake Zone

I was fast asleep in San Francisco this morning when I felt my bed shaking, so I woke up. I had a brief thought that I might have felt an earthquake but thought, 'Well, I don't actually know what an earthquake feels like; I'm sure I was just dreaming that I felt my bed shake.' So I went back to sleep.

Then at dinner tonight my brother's girlfriend mentioned how strong the earthquake this morning had been! So I actually did feel an earthquake. How strange, especially considering how close I was to feeling a major earthquake in Indonesia just a few weeks ago. I'm feeling very lucky to have missed the earthquake in Java by just a few days and to have experienced just a small earthquake in San Francisco.
