My first real earthquake.  I don't think I need to experience anything stronger. 

 Last week I was sitting at the computer and thought I felt a large truck rolling by the house (or a teenager with the bass turned up too loud on their car.)  Then I felt the front wall bend toward me and saw my poor southern-raised Basset Hound heading for the hills.  She didn't know what hit her.  I didn't either.

For a few more minutes the floor rolled underfoot and then it was calm again.  Quite an exciting adventure which I was glad to observe from the comfort of my own home, rather than the comfort of a bridge, overpass, or tunnel.
