5.4 Magnitude Earthquake in the LA area

I was surprised that this was national news. This earthquake made my whole house shake, but some times my house shakes when slam the front door. So I wasn't really sure what was going on. So far I haven't heard of any significant damage or any injuries. For me it made me uncomfortable but that was about it.

I was kinda confused to be honest. It's been so long since we had an earthquake I had a total brain fart. I was kneeling down about to go under my desk when it started shaking, but I was like.. "wait... do I go under a desk or go to a doorway?" So I just stood around for a bit and ran for the door after it stopped. :lol:

I was on facebook, lol, but I rushed to the doorway. My computer desk went crazy shaking, but it really felt like someone was playing loud music or something in the other room. Heh.

I was at work in a meeting and a couple of people at the table were getting ready to hop under the table. I usually continue to sleep (I slept through Northridge), lay there, or keep sitting when an earthquake hits, but it was rolling for awhile so I know what Fishy is talking about when he says he was confused. In the end, I just stayed where I was. I hope everyone is ok and that nothing was damaged.

Ditto. Makes it awkward when people tell all their cool stories about where they were when it happened... :oops:

I just saw it on TV, being on the other side of the continent, but I'm glad all you guys are okay.
