EARTHQUAKE!
 
I got woken up by a 4.2 earthquake about an hour ago...in Indiana! I heard a thud and thought I felt it too, then I heard my dresser creaking. It lasted no more than a few seconds. I thought either a plane had crashed nearby or a car drove into my house.

Nirvana, I bet you felt it. Shawnee, I read that it was even felt in the Dayton Ohio area...did you feel any of it?

Ooooh!
Exciting when you know it's not a proper disaster :)

Pico and ME 12-30-2010 08:12 AM

I know! Except, damn it, I wish I had been awake to feel the shaking. It was only a few miles from me.

Shawnee123 12-30-2010 08:14 AM

The cafe lady said the ice machine all of a sudden started spewing ice, from the shaking. I didn't feel it. I miss everything! RATS! Of course, I'm constantly shaking my leg so probably didn't notice. What time exactly? Oh, I just looked online: shortly before 8 a.m. I was in the office at 5 'til. Still missed it.

You were right in the center of it!

I felt it here in Kettering Oh. My house shook a little like a giant was wondering what was inside. Over very quickly. Like sex.

Shawnee123 12-30-2010 08:48 AM

Ket'rin. That's part of DATE-un, right? Tee hee. :)

I edited it. I don't want people to think I'm putting on airs.

;)

Shawnee123 12-30-2010 08:50 AM

I edited too. But from DATE-un, not PEEKWAY. ;)

shhhhhhhh (there be some crazies out thar!)

I love the way cities names dont sound like they look. Near me is Russiaville, but don't you dare pronounce it the way it reads. Its Roo-sha-ville. And I came from Hobart, but pronounce it Ho-bert.

Shawnee123 12-30-2010 08:56 AM

We have a Russia, but it's pronounced ROO-shee. And Versailles (ver SALES, which I guess make sense to merkins, but it's certainly not the french pronunciation.) My french last name (maiden name) was merkinized too.

Oh, and if you say LAN-caster Ohio, folks from Lankster will beat you up. I went to college with a bunch of people from Lancaster, I mean Lankster.

Trilby 12-30-2010 08:59 AM

yeah, and our LIMA ohio is really LIMA - not LEEMA.

We have a Houston that's pronounced HOUSE-TON.

weird, weird state. Of course, we don't have a Blue Ball or Intercourse like some places do. :)

Aren't those two mutually exclusive? If you don't have one, you must have the other...

TheMercenary 12-30-2010 09:50 AM

Looks like it was only a 3.8er...

Not us women. :p:

BigV 12-30-2010 02:46 PM

ok........ I'll bite.

what kind of balls *do* you have?

Shawnee123 12-30-2010 02:47 PM

Listen, if your school or parents failed in the sex education arena, I'm not picking up the slack. Maybe one of the boys can explain it to you. :lol:

Miles apart... about 6.4 miles as the spooge flies.

Now Pico knows what Southern CA feels like from time to time. Sorta wibbly. We get this kind of thing reported more or less with the weather on the nightly news: Where It Jiggled Today & About How Much. Sometimes revised.

New Year's was heavy-sweater/light jacket weather here, with clear skies. We spent the whoopee at the local Legion Post (Post 48). Middle-aged like us and retirees like older folks. Good party hatz, tho'.
