an earthquake and five aftershocks later.....

The earth will never feel the same to me again.

Half an hour after the last one (a mag 4.5) my heart hasn't stopped racing, partially because the racing heartbeat makes my legs feel like jelly, and then it feels like yet another tremor, which just sets the whole cycle going again.

(I'm currently in Charlottesville, Virginia, 30-40 miles away from the epicentre.)
