So there I was......

...just sitting in the breakroom eating my cup of yogurt at about 11:30 today when a coworker and I felt a rumble. We thought it was a large truck passing by our building, but it didn't stop.

We had, instead, a 5.8 "mini-quake" ( epicenter in Chino-- not close, maybe 100 miles?) that officially became the First Really Scary Earthquake-y Like Thing I've Ever Been In Since Moving Here. It was like the whole world was on rollers! We leapt up and stood in a doorway, and it lasted about a minute.

Afterwards, I felt like my tummy wouldn't settle and I was dizzy for about 20 minutes. And then things went back to normal.

I've decided I don't like earthquakes very much. Tornadoes, storms, snow, blizzards, etc I can cope with. But I was kind of thinking about it and the sense that the earth isn't going to hold you up? Not a keeper. Thanks anyway.

In the end no one was hurt. A few books fell over, but not many. Can you imagine a more insane place to be if it was bigger? Crazy.

We now return to your regularly scheduled programming.....
