I get mental when earthquakes hit. I get dizzy, nauseous; can't stand the thought of having to fight mother nature, rather, just sit and have to deal with it cuz there ain't really a way to win. If it comes right for you most likely it's game over.

I remember growing up in Ohio and feeling one in the early 80's. Last earthquake I felt was '99 in Portland Oregon. I woke up to the dresser and mirror shaking thinking my dog was laying next to them scratching himself. When I noticed my dog at the foot of my bed I convinced myself it was a ghost and pulled the covers over my head and went back to sleep.
Funny I thought a ghost was more realistic and scarier than an earthquake!

Glad you are OK buddy. Lose any ceramics or glassware sitting perilously close to table or shelf edges?

ha... I was just at the coffee shop and this girl was talking about how she's a deep sleeper... I was like, what did you miss something? She said something about the earthquake... I was like, oh, that was real? I though that was a dream or a result of drinking. but yeah, woke me up
