Did ya feel that one?

There’s nothing like a big-ass earthquake to wake you up from a post-vacation lull…

  1. I didn’t feel it at all, but the blinds swayed and my coworker said, “Huh, I feel really drunk all of a sudden.” Maybe I am drunk, and that’s why I didn’t notice.

  2. When it happened, I was lying on my bed and I felt the room shimmy, slightly. It wasn’t so bad in Glendale, and I chalked it up to my being paranoid. When I got to work, I leanred that it was apparently much more noticeable. Once again, I miss out on earthquake fun. Dang.

  3. About two years ago, in the middle of the night, we had a small earthquake here. (I don’t remember exactly where the fault line is, but I think it’s somewhere along the Arkansas border.)

    I’d gotten home from work at the World, and so it was about 1:30 a.m. I was sitting on the couch, watching TV, and Gus the cat was dozing a the other end of the couch. All of a sudden, for about four seconds, the building shuddered, just vibrated, and then stopped. I seriously thought I was hallucinating, and I would’ve continued to think so if Gus hadn’t been giving me the same “What the fuck just happened here?” look.

    Earthquakes are weird. Here’s to not getting crushed to death by one.

  5. You people are krazy. I didn’t feel anything. Why is everyone drunk at 11:30 in the morning except me? No fair.
