Shakespeare knew what he was talking about. There should be more odes to sleep, it is awesomer than food and possibly even than water. (That one's a close call: technically you can survive longer without sleep than without water, but on the other hand if you can sleep then you can forget for a while that you're thirsty, but drinking water doesn't make you forget you're tired; for that you need stronger substances.)

I think I'm going to be dreaming for a while about recovering from an earthquake, though last night I also dreamed about a collage I made before the quake.

I felt another quake this morning - I'm not sure if it was the 2.6 that was 2km deep just a stone's throw away (2.6 is tiny but 2km deep! that's... I didn't know you could have earthquakes that shallow) or the 4.6 further away. [ETA Triangulating from the Twitter reactions it was probably the 4.6. It just didn't seem that light outside at the time; but then this is a darker bedroom than what I usually sleep in.] Anyway I felt one and slept through three more.

And anyway-anyway, I woke up properly at 9am and felt really good. Off to church now on another sunny day.
