My friend Kelly had been whining about not being able to nap because of all the quakes in her neighrhood. It turns out, she was right! There have been a lot of small earthquakes.
But Friday night put us on the news. A 4.7 shook everything, and lasted for what seemed 10 seconds. I was sitting at the time, but it almost felt like I was inside a Zorb ball!
This morning, at around 4.30 am, a 4.2 woke me up in the middle of my dreaming session. The aftershocks put me to sleep afterwards, and I haven’t felt anything since…
Rumors are that Reno is “overdue for a 6+”, and that God Hates Reno, so we’re in for a special something. I hope that it’s nothing catastrophic.

I’m going to keep myself informed, since there are quite a few sources of information. I already got myself set up with an Earthquake preparedness kit, as recommended by Bike Carson.
