a measly 7 pointer and everyone is all excited

[plural]

well

Amber is ok
my cats are ok
the house is undisturbed

all in all
the world has survived

I was actually on the phone
with someone about 20 miles away
who felt it first
so I knew it was coming
and just relaxed in my desk chair
and rode it out

calming the lady on the
other end of the phone
hiding under her desk

it was strange

she said
oh my god its an earthquake
and
then
it slowly started to shake
then increased
until it got rather violent
my office lamp
swayed a bit
so I knocked it over

once it was over
I tried to call home
but the cell phone wasn't
connecting

talked with and
comforted some
coworkers
bullshitted about how big it was

decided
that I needed to go home
and
make sure all was all right on the
home front

all in all
an eventful day

OMG
You just gave me my second really good giggle of the day!
"My office lamp swayed a bit so I knocked it over."
I can't stop grinning.
For some reason that just seems SO funny.
