We'll give you this one.

Didn't feel a thing.

Hope everyone gets through with little or better, no damage and it's only the cell phones that are jammed.

I am almost to the Tijuana border~I was rolling around in my computer chair. I guess that is what rolling is? Usually I hear the patio doors shake and scare the scrap out of us.

Wow.

So...I just got home from L.A., is this the second one? Should I be freaking otu? Should I let my son go to school?

I'm sure he'd love to stay home.

But I'll take him. {he doesn't go in for a bit...}

My cell is down too.

Felt it in Camarillo for probably... at least 30 seconds. My chair bounced a little, then I could see things wobbling, and the walls moved. But my house has survived quakes before, and I felt reasonably certain it would survive this one as well, and we have. The shaking was pretty gentle by the time it got here. I'm surprised at how fast y'all are at posting.

Less violent than the Northridge, for me. I remember that one. But I refuse to say that makes me old.

Weird, Perhaps it was really a nuclear device and the EMP got the cell system. Do you see any odd shaped clouds in the distance?

I've only lived here for 9 years, so I only remember feeling a tad of shaking from Northridge when I was living in Vegas.

This is the worst one I've felt in the last 9 years I've lived here.

This is me ->
