Wow!
It’s 3:20am., and most of the occupants of the condominium are outside. Why?
A new seismic activity alarm was installed not long ago, and it went off like no one’s business.
I was sleeping; Ivan was at his computer; I could hear this obnoxious noise coming from who knows where. WTH?
I sat up, looking at Ivan on his computer, asking him why he doesn’t have his earbuds in, and he is very calmly telling me it’s not his computer, it must be an earthquake.
Oh. Ok.
So, I got up, went to the bathroom, got out my robe, and started for the bedroom door. All the while Ivan is asking me if I was going to go outside with him. Was I ready? Me-I’m going to the bathroom- do I look ready? Him- Come on, we need to get downstairs, and outside. Me- You go. I have to get my robe. Him- Really? Put on these pants- you’ll be fine. Me- you can’t be serious. I’ll put on my robe, it’ll be faster. Him- ok. Let’s go.
Well, then I good sense to look in the bathroom mirror on the way out of said room and decided I had to brush my hair. Then, I had to put on my slippers, etc. Meanwhile, Jesús is knocking on our door, with Gabi over his shoulder, telling us we need to go downstairs.
So, we did.
Most, but not all of the condo members were outside, in the park.
For about 3 minutes.
After that, everyone went back inside, and I sat down to write this post.
We didn’t feel any quake, which is fine by me, but its epicenter was about 300 miles from us. Maybe someone felt it, but we did not.
All is well. Going back to bed.
Stay happy, healthy, and safe. Wash, cover, and protect yourselves.
