It was a surprise to be sure, but it was over before I could do much more than utter a "what tha...?"
I'm stuck home with a tweaked back, so I didn't have to live through the wildly swaying building (I work on the 45th floor of a downtown highrise), so that's nice. Even here in Long Beach closer to the ground, it did its darnedest to make me ill and loopy in the head for about 6-7 minutes. It's a fairly bizarre sensation. Kinda like the tire swing on three chains or the merry-go-round from days of yore, and much like those times, I wanted to get off before vomiting. But it's hard to get off the earth - you guys from NASA know of what I speak. Apparently there's been a earthquakian dry spell for the last decade or so in LA... Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come. People in LA are loopy enough as it is.

Hey, Mike, speaking of flashbacks, I saw this
while killing time in a bookstore yesterday. Reminded me of you.
Hope your ground is more stable today!
