I must say, that was a very weird experience. I started feeling light-headed.. I have a hanger on my cubicle, and it started swinging back and forth. I thought I was going crazy. Then I saw my water shifting in the bottle on my desk.. When the floor was clearly shaking, people were out of their chairs and evacuating.

I thought it was my heart beating strongly (kinda like when you're cooling down from a workout), so I figured I was having a heart attack or something. I would have called 911 had I not realized everything was jiggling...window shades, bookshelves, etc. at which point I figured it was road work or a big truck passing by. I had no idea there was an earthquake until I saw an FB post about it.
