What did it register on the richter scale? Did you at least level your neighborhood?

That musta been some belch!

:p

(Yikes though... heartburn is scary the first time around.)

I find them all fun.

But if it was a good Cuban sandwich then it was worth it.

Put me in the fun camp

I'm in the fun camp as well. (We native Californios are a weird bunch.)

Happy cows!

Oh it was very scary. Thank goodness Mom was right down the hall and she told me it was heartburn and gave me a Pepcid and I settled in for a night without much more sleep.

And yes, Moonie, the Cuban was worth it...it was great! However I won't be eating another anytime soon.

I find them simultaneously fun and scary. Growing up I enjoyed them, even after being in LA county for Northridge (that one was scary, of course).

This is where it gets scary. The last big one here sent me home in a panic to check on our bunnies. I think that if you have pets or children to care for, it changes the dynamic.

That is where I would expect to find you. Especially when we aren't talking about earthquakes!

We lived in a two-story condo in Rancho Cucamonga when the Northridge quake hit. Most of the second story hallway was open to the entry way (with a waist-high ledge). While the ground was shaking, one of our cats (Willie) got scared and tried to jump up on that ledge. Because it was a moving target (and it was a little slippery because it was painted and smooth), he was not able to get traction and fell to the tile below. Thankfully he wasn't hurt (we took him to the vet just to be sure), though very shaken up. Forever after that, we called it the "Kitty Suicide Ledge" though we never did see Willie up there again.

I didn't feel it. :( I'm still waiting to feel like a true Californian! Probably there will be some huge quake while I'm away next week and I'll miss out.

Nope, didn't feel a thing !!
