Floor Shaking II

The pseudo ersatz Ispica earthquake did not suffice for the summer. Today, as I sat on the toilet to pee, I experienced a real tremor. I thought it was a plumbing problem as the toilet was swaying. WEIRD. L was downstairs with babies freaked out because the shutters were shaking. When I got outside and saw all of Harlem on the sidewalk, I knew it had not been my imagination. Earth tremors. Something new to worry about. Waiting for MoJo to return from Philly (their plans changed 1000 times today) and for A to stop crying so she can start the night. We are trying sleep music tonight. Walked 9 miles in the park post yoga and post tremor. Hoping ferberizing II goes better tonight. Just to make sure I remember how she feels, my mother told me that letting A cry was psychologically damaging to her. Never spares her comments.
