$#@&!

And now an earthquake?! WHAT'S NEXT?

There were several earthquakes last night, though I was only fully awakened by one of them. At a quarter after five, I was jolted out of a vaguely unpleasant dream about English boarding schools and goose-stepping. The earthquake was strong, but short. Not big enough or long enough to do damage in a country that has building codes, but needless to say, Afghanistan doesn’t.

I feel like death this morning.
