Caution! : cleaning your bathroom causes earthquakes

So there I was, innocently cleaning my bathroom when the window next to me, the china cats on the shelf next to me, all did a little dance, and you could hear it too..seemed like a muffled roar. Your mind naturally asks why and fills in the blank with the scary stuff. Having lived in Southern California for 9 years, I know what quakes feels like, but have never experienced one here on the East Coast. They happen all the time but we normally cannot feel them.

It was just a little spooky. After checking outside just in case there was more to follow...I returned to my regularly scheduled cleaning. Shaking up things does tend to get everyone's attention..at least for 20 minutes.

Having lived through, albeit as a 5 yr old kid, the BIG quake in Alaska in 1964, I knew that this was an earthquake. A minor one by most standards, but big for here on the East Coast.
