It's always moving

Another fun thing about living in Southern California is that the ground is moving all the time. You don't hear about it on the news, nobody runs out their front door screaming "Earthquake!", you just get used to things happening like what happened to me about 30 seconds ago when my desk just swayed a little to the left, and then it swayed a little to the right, and for a second I thought it was me because I didn't eat much for lunch and I'm still working on a Mountain Dew, and also there's a guy here re-enameling our bathtub and even though most of the toxic fumes are being pumped outside maybe a little is sneaking in and making me dizzy? But it isn't. It's the Earth. It's always moving.
