We just had a 5.4 earthquake. One of the reasons I love California. I am thinking the workday will pick up a little! You can read about it here:

I work on the second floor of my building and we were moving quite a bit for a couple of seconds. I even got a bit seasick, or perhaps earthquake-sick?! It has been a while since I have felt an earthquake and it was as much fun as I remembered! Luckily no one was hurt and there was only minor damage at the epicenter down near LA.
I have heard people say that they would rather deal with tornadoes or hurricanes as opposed to earthquakes. I strongly disagree. It feels like you are sitting or standing on a water bed for a couple of seconds and then it is over. Plus I think Dorthy would agree with me that tornadoes are no fun.
Any friends from other states want to come visit?

Whoa! Was there any damage? I know that's not huge, but still, kinda crazy!
I was told that sometimes earthquakes like that are precursors for bigger ones in the next 24 hours. Lets keep our fingers crossed that that was an isolated quake. Ahh!!
Hah, I didn't even get to feel it. For some reason...the house I was in...I was bummed! :)
