8.9

So I've been through many an earthquake in my 28 years on this earth... but I surely thought it was the end when this one hit. I experianced one of similar magnitude when I was younger when I lived in Guam. It was an 8.2. This one felt MUCH worse. Also the fact that I work in an basement and even the last few large earth quakes we've had here (6-7 on the scale), none did I feel in the basement. This one was rockin the joint... and it felt like it wouldn't stop.... I mean if anyones ever been on the ocean on a boat and doesn't have their sea legs... thats how it felt trying to leave the building... can't keep your balance... shit movin up down left and right.... it sucked.... I was pretty damn scared. All that being said all of my friends and loved ones are all ok. Cell phones are down and Facebook is whats keeping us all in touch... social media... who knew?!

Thanks for all the concern and well wishes on the FB page. My prayers and conerns go out to everyone who has family or friends and hasn't heard from them and for the families who lost someone today...
