Holy smokes. I just felt my first earthquake. Huh. It lasted for five to eight seconds. The eerie thing about it was that even though I am still at school and there are still some kids here (elementary left at 3:15) is that the place went completely silent. The only sound was glass rattling.
Weird.
Back to work.
I guess it was a 5.9 originating 25 miles southeast of here.
