Okay so I know that everyone is poking fun at this earthquake situation.
But being on the 26th floor
I hope NOBODY ever experiences an earthquake on the 26th floor.
I felt the tremor and then began to feel my entire building physically sway for a good minute and a half.
And the first thing I thought about was ten years ago.
and I am GLAD that everyone is safe and nothing terrible happened.
I stayed downstairs, outside sitting on a bench using free wireless for the rest of the day, and reading.
So I heard a lot of people's reactions. And yes, I can't help but find a lot of them really really funny.
I'll leave you with this:
Kid, walking down Greenwich Street with his mom. Blonde. Glasses. Skinny. About six. Funny kid.
He said, matter-of-factly, to his mom:
"There was just an earthquake."
(pause)
"There was just an earthquake."
(pause again)
"And I cried my face off."
funny stuff.
