i'm tired of the earthquakes around here...

i'm a california girl. what's my problem?? i think it's that i did not expect any earthquakes that i could feel around here...but last nights' was a 4.7 - 4.9 depending on what you read. it woke us both up - i said to rob: you get irene, i'll get rhys. so off we went. we stood in the door jambs with the kids for a little bit and then headed back to bed with the kids in our room. neither of us could really go back to sleep. there were several little wee aftershocks (and one not so little) so we stayed awake...for a long time. two days ago we all felt some tremors as well (in the 3 range). just crazy. so, i know for sure where the gas turn off is. next i need to get some water. our just in case contingencies.
