I absolutely refuse to let any of it bring me down though. Absolutely no point having bad things happen and dwelling/being bitter about them! Life's short and I like to enjoy every bit of it.

Earthquakes are awsome. I used to live in CA. and the first one was scary as crap but after a couple they are pretty wild. It is amazing to think about how much energy it takes to shake the earth that much. And to see the ground rolling like a wave...wild. But I lived in the country so no buildings to fall on me.

Even small scale earthquakes can be no shit terrifying if your buildings aren't meant to take those kind of stresses.

But seriously dude, Canada is obviously trying to kill you. Remember your Stephen King! When seemingly small things start adding up like this, some evil force is after you.
