This should be updated for the panicky Californians.


For what it is worth, I wouldn't say me being “on edge” was anything like or near a panic. Nor was I really scared. If anything, my “edginess” simply meant I was ready for a bigger one to hit. As such, I started making mental notes as to where my earthquake kit was located and I made sure to grab my mobile phone - just in case.

Regardless, it doesn't matter how many earthquakes I have experienced, or even how small they might be. Having the earth shift under me is disconcerting. I find it is similar to when I would “hear” a tornado coming. These sounds and motions are not the norm - even if they are "natural".
