Shake Rattle 'n Roll

Just sat through my first earthquake! It was really strange to feel the whole apartment basically "flex" as the wave movement and sound passed through the ground. It took about 2 seconds to realize what was happenning and the whole thing lasted about 5 seconds with a quick aftershock moments later.

There was no damage here but the emergency services can be heard in the streets - but it could be anything. The news later will reveal the full extent of what just happened.
