Hope the Easter bunny's rabbit hole is built to code.

This Easter we got something besides cheap baskets and chocolate eggs. We had a 7.2 earthquake.

Well, we didn't have it. Mexicali had it. We just felt it.

A sort of gentle, rolling quake that rocked the house back and forth. Very similar to the sugar rush from too many of those chocolate eggs.

We immediately turned on the television and wondered how long it would be before seismo-gals Lucy Jones or Kate Hutton from Cal Tech would be having a press conference. Turns out not long at all. The second the tv was on, there was Lucy in front of all the microphones, calming our nerves while at the same time cautioning us that we're overdue for the big one.

Talk about mixed messages.

I don't know about you, but I'm heading out to buy some bottled water, plastic bags, canned food and toilet paper. That's for next Easter.

For the next earthquake I'm picking up some vodka.
