I was sitting at the computer and started to sway in my chair. The blinds were slamming against my windows and the house was creaking. I grabbed my dog and ran outside. It looked like everyone else was running outside too. I'm located in Oceanside, CA and the epicenter was about 40 miles south of Mexicali, I believe. It was a 6.9 BTW.

I hope so too, man. Let me know if you reach them. It kinda startled me. It was the strongest I'd felt in awhile.

No Juan, no more pain. That reminds me, I should take more hydrocodone.

Apparently the quake has been reclassed as a 7.2.

I just got off the phone with my sister because my niece is visiting my cousin in San Diego. She said her daughter called her right after it happened and told her it was a 6.9 and my sister said "ok, sure." Then I called her and she was like "holy s***....I didn't believe her, I thought she was exaggerating."

LOL...anyway, sounds like no major damage in CA, but the epicenter was about 120 miles south of San Diego, so who knows how bad it is down there.

Perhaps it's a coincidence but I understand Rosie O'Donnell fell in her bathtub at the time of the earthquake...

I was working in the garage and drinking and suddenly noticed the room swaying and thought "s***3, I can't have the spins on a few beers!". Then my tools and parts started clanging around and I realized what it was.
