It's about time...

[unforth]

I think there was just an earthquake. Either that or one of my housemates was having sex enthusiastically enough to shake the entire apartment, which seems unlikely even thought it was my first thought.

And here it was looking like I was gonna get out of Tokyo without feeling one!

Hmm...then again, maybe not, I'd think this website would show it.

What the heck was that, then? It was...very shaky. And much to fast to be sex. Except maybe really, really bad sex.

lol. In the time I was writing this post, that webpage added it. So! My first earthquake! And it was a big one, cause it wasn't that close to here. (there's a map on that page)

There are 2 earthquakes listed yesterday on that website... is neither one of them at the right time? Time zones are confusing, etc. so I can't tell.

I felt a bunch of them the first week I was in Japan in 2004 -- it was creepy! But I haven't felt many this time, knock on wood. (I do not want a concrete wall to fall on me or a gas line to blow up near me, so even if I feel a slight one, I freak out. o_o Though if time passes and nothing falls on me, I do think it is somewhat exciting.)

Those are pretty big quakes, too! I'm wondering why I'm not seeing them on NHK right now. (I looked up the Japanese seismic scale and 5.4 is up there a ways! But I wonder how far out to sea they were, and what it felt like on land in Fukushima and Miyagi.)

Wow, congratulations? I dunno, it sounds like it'd be scary :-P Hmm you must have some pretty HUGE roommates for you to think it was them having sex to shake your ENTIRE apartment :-P

6.0 ftw. I sat on my desk this morning, staring at Japan on my spreadsheet, my Reuters news scroll going beepbeepbeep in it's loving little way of saying "yo muthafucka, look at me!" I think more silliness broke loose in my office than in that country, where they probably just blew it off like an American at a gaijin club ;)
