Earthquake!

Just felt my first earthquake while awake...while sitting at the computer, no less. 15 minutes later, my heart rate is getting back to normal, and I'm not shaking as much.

Apparently it was a 6.9, epicenter off the coast of Baja California (a few hours south?). Felt like being on a train, going full speed ahead. The vertical blinds in my apartment shook. Stuff on the shelves rattled. I could kinda see the walls shifting to and fro. The whole thing probably lasted about a minute. I was sitting at the computer when I felt the first rumbles...sat for a moment, then looked around, then got up, walked around the living room (when it peaked), noted that I felt a little nauseous and didn't like it, came back to computer, posted a quick Facebook status, then it settled down.

I always wanted to feel one. Now I have. And I did NOT like it! Ack! Made me a little seasick.
