I didn't feel anything.

Felt it. Things shook. I like it, but immediately worry that something happened to (or fell on) one of the dogs. Got home - everything and everyone is intact.

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.

Missed the whole thing...maybe because I was lying in bed sick.

Staples Center played "I Feel the Earth Move" but I didn't feel it, nor did the lights swing.

I can find quakes interesting or frightening, depending on the shaker and the timing. Awake- cool. Asleep- problem.
