My first EARTHQUAKE!

Yesterday, I was working in my office, when I heard a strange sound and vibration. It felt/sound like somehing fell on the roof of the house. I went outside to see if anything did, but all was good.

I just now checked the local newspaper article, and they reported that it was an earthquake yesterday. Click here for the article.

Wow, how exciting, my very first earthquake!!!!!

Shake on....

Mike,

You never forget your first!

Mine was back when I was living in Memphis (at least fifteen years ago now). Unfortunately, I was so drugged-up on Nyquil that I almost didn’t realize that we were having an earthquake.

I had had a flu and had stayed home the day and was up only because after sleeping in the arms of Vicks Nyquil all day, I needed something to eat. I was in my kitchen when the quake hit and at first I thought it was a big truck going by. Other than the fact that the television was on and someone on the newscast I was watching made comment that it was an earthquake I would have dismissed it immediately.

As it was, I almost thought it was a figment of my imagination until I read about it in the paper the next day.

Oh well… not much to remember, but it was my first!
