I just talked to my "son from another mother" as he's working in San Francisco. He didn't even feel it. I don't know how close he is to where the tsunami may be coming and was frantic to reach him.

Now I have to call my friend even further north and make sure she's okay.

earthquakes are terrifying. Born and raised in LA so I've been through some. Stay safe!!

ETA he just texted me the tsunami warning was canceled according to Apple News
