Was fun, but i still prefer the rides at 6 Flags Magic Mountain

Status: offline 		i'm still trying to get through to Ma'am, was at least able to leave a message on Her voicemail... the news has said that there were no reports of injuries or any real damage; i'm not too worried about Her but still want to be sure from Her own lips.  Was online with my sister submissive and she's ok though

was funny, at first i thought it was the upstairs neighbors

Status: offline 		I'm glad you are all okay!  Earthquakes can be fun if they are the rolling kind, but the jerky one's can be scary!  In the 70's I was able to watch a rolling one in a school yard across the street.  Seeing the ground rising and falling like green waves was amazing.  But those jerky one's... well the out of towners tend to pack up as soon as they can and move home!  That was pretty funny to watch too! hehe

I envy you all that live there, as I miss home and I would take an earthquake, rolling or jerky over a tornado, anyday!  I hope the after shocks don't drive you batty!

Glad to hear everyone else out here seems to have fared well...

Didn't bother with that vest - they didn't even evacuate our building.  But we are on rollers and that felt horrible!

being an l.a. native, i have lived through too many quakes to count.
so yes, when there aren't horrific injuries and deaths....we see these as "fun."
(i knew people who were severely injured in northridge, and a friend lost the baby she was carrying.
i am not making light of the devastation.)

was in my car this morning. thought i was being rear ended, until i looked in my mirrors and out my windows and saw everyone shaking like crazy.

earthquakes, mudslides, fires and riots. those are our seasons.
it beats hurricanes, tornadoes and snow!!!

Yeah, well that's what I get for not being in the office the day that vote was taken. I should have claimed 'executive privilege' but I found out they were going to have 'krispy-kreme' donuts at the meeting so I went.

We didn't evacuate either, but I had to grab the vest - it's what I use to wrap the bottle of scotch, which, as any good 'floor warden' knows is an essential part of any 'emergency kit'.

Status: offline 		       I had run out to grab some lunch, and missed it completely in the car.  The wife was down in LA and she got a decent ride.  The failure of the cell phone system needs to be a wake-up call though.  If this had been a big nasty, all the folks calling to ask if their friends felt it, would have kept others from getting through to emergency services.
