Did you feel that?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

A little earthquake...here in Los Angeles....just a little one...

[ohiosmith]

1. Sorry Peggy. Just a little gas.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. ROFLMAO!

I DON'T think so! It was too gentle for that!


:rofl:

[Zomby Woof]

2. Nope!

Damn, I miss all the fun!

Thought I felt something last night, so I am going to check the USGS site and see...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. It was very gentle, my dear ZW......

If I hadn't been sitting here in my computer chair, I would have missed it entirely...

:shrug:

[Shell Beau]

3. Uh oh!!

Hurricanes, earthquakes, can we please have a little break?
:crazy:

[Zomby Woof]

6. I checked the USGS site

Looks like a 4.0ish quake struck north of here... explains why I didn't feel it, but it depends on where you are for one that small!

I guess CP was in the right (wrong?) place at the right time. :-)

[Shell Beau]

10. Well we certainly don't need anything getting in the way of your

possible good news!!!!!!

[Zomby Woof]

11. Hehehe

Well, I don't have the part YET! :D

But I sure appreciate your kind support! :bounce:

[Shell Beau]

13. I know, but positive thinking is always good!

And if you don't get it this time, then I know for sure you will next time!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. Ah, a 4.0.......

It didn't even feel that strong here...but if it was farther north, that would explain it....

Thanks for checking it out, my dear ZW.....



:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Oh, my dear Shell Beau...

We Californians just laugh these off...they are NO big deal at all...

It might get a mention in tomorrow's paper, or on tonight's news...

But that's all....

Don't worry.....

[Shell Beau]

15. I know, that is kind of how we are about tornadoes and

small hurricanes (not a Katrina or Rita). I guess when you aren't used to them, you kinda worry!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. I assure you, we are definitely used to these......

Not a problem at all...

Not in the same class as a Katrina or Rita, by a long shot.....

This is more like tripping over your shoe laces, if you have any!

[huskerlaw]

24. I'm gonna have to work on

laughing them off...the mere thought scares me to death. :scared:

Glad all is ok though!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. Hi there my dear huskerlaw......

You have been on roller coasters that are waaaay scarier than this was, I assure you.....

This was nothing to worry about...a tiny reality check from Ma Nature is all....

:hug:

[huskerlaw]

35. I do like roller coasters...

but they don't usually happen in my living room. ;)

BTW, sorry I haven't called. Some family stuff came up and my evenings have been crazy. Tonight should be back to normal though...are you going to be home?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

37. I will be, yes...

And I stay up late, as well....so call whenever you like...after 8:30 PM CA time is good...

Later! And btw, no apologies are needed...I know you have a life, my dear..

[Zomby Woof]

43. Prepare for motion sickness!

Above a 5.0, you can get a little queasy is you're prone to such things, lol. The ground can feel like jelly, which is a new sensation to the uninitiated. :-)

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

4. that was just * and his boys dropping the ball again

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. NOW there's an answer for you!

I almost believe it, too!


:rofl:

[Squatch]

5. Wow...really?

On edit :rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. Now, would I lie to you?

No way, baby.....I FELT it!

[ohiosmith]

8. Peggy, a 4.0 in bakersfield.

[ronnykmarshall]

14. I better call my mom.

I didn't feel it in LA.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. Wow, Bakersfield?

Then it is surprising I felt it at all.....

That's like 90 miles north of here.......

Wow...

[bertha katzenengel]

18. A 4.0, then a 4.9 less than a minute later - central CA

And you felt it in L.A.? Wow. Lemme ask my sister if she felt anything in Santa Ana...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. I'd be surprised if she did...

That's further south than I am...and it was faint here...

:shrug:

[bertha katzenengel]

30. Yep. No, she didn't.

But now she's in a tizzy! Calling everyone, as we Californians do.

God, I'm homesick.

[redqueen]

41. Awww bertha...

:hug:

[trackfan]

20. Yep. Made the building creak and groan. n/t

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. My house didn't do that at all....

But it's two stories, and new construction....way over built according to our framing contractor...

The motion was kind of silky almost.....gentle.....

[mshasta]

21. nope did not felt it....

but like you said is not big deal for us...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. Well, you didn't miss much, I tell you!

Just felt like commenting on it today! It's fun to start threads, esp. on things like this......


:hi:

[atomic-fly]

23. my browser doesn't have that feature....

didn't feel a thing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. Well, if you'd felt it in Virginia,

and it happened here in California, I sure as HELL would not be sitting here posting about it!


:rofl:

[XemaSab]

31. As long as your house doesn't look like this you're alright...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

33. Not even close, my dear , not even close..wait I'll show you......

This is what the back of my house looks like......

[XemaSab]

34. No flames,

no people standing around gawking, no wooden struts holding it up.... I'd say you're OK :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

36. I'd agree.....and thank you for your kind comments!

Except this silly thread has run longer than I thought it would, and now I'm STARVING!

See you later...time to eat, or die......:crazy:

[XemaSab]

38. Word...

keep it real, and go get something representing the 4 food groups, like fritos and coke!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. You got it....my leftovers from the Olive Garden are calling me.....nt

[redqueen]

40. Oh how pretty!

What a lovely house you have. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

42. Thank you!

Nothing on God's green earth is like having a custom house!

We are soooooo lucky......
