    Californians

    Did you feel the quake, or were you affected by it? I was surprised I didn't hear about it on Pet Talk first!

    Yes! I heard we had 3 this last week? I only felt the one Thursday morning, it woke me up at about 10 something. But then I heard people talking about two more!
    I keep saying that we can have as many very small ones as needed, but absolutely NO 'big ones'!

    I read that it was a 6.5 quake. That's way big enough to feel if it was
    in your town. I hope everyone is ok.

    Lucy Jones from Caltech did a press conference today and aid that the quake was caused by the people living back east.

    Like anything we did could cause a quake there!

    She said you all are shaking so bad because of the weather that the crust of the earth vibrates and causes earthquakes!

    I have to apologize for the post.
    The weather has been sinfully good here on the west coast and everytime I see the reports from back east I am so guilty that it's not funny.

    Really.

    The EQ was way up the coast and the El Lay basin probably didn't even flinch.

    I was at work Thursday morning and was talking to a co-worker when that one hit. After she left my desk I heard people asking if anyone felt that. I had no clue what they were talking about. Then the co-worker that was at my desk came back and said "I guess it wasn't my fat a$$ that bumped your cubicle, it was an earthquake". She thought she bumped the wall of the cubicle. I didn't even notice anything at all.
    I didn't feel the one on Friday either. Saw someone post about it on Facebook. Then the big one yesterday was too far away from us.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh I thought you meant there was another one today. We usually never feel earthquakes where i'm at...luckily.

    I never felt a thing. I was still on vacation so I was sleeping on Thurs. when that one hit. It wasn't enough to wake me up though. My roommate told me about it later. I never knew about the one on Fri. and I heard another one was in San Franciso but I'm about 1 hour away from there. Hopefully this doesn't mean that we'll be getting another large earthquake again.

    My exact thought.... I'm not a fan of earthquakes. I really don't want a 'big one'!
