was that an earthquake or am I insane?
My office just moved...slightly. a few times...

I have lived here for a year and have never felt an earthquake...I have no idea it wasn't just a stiff wind, as my house is old...

I am kinda weirded out, and will feel really silly if it wasn't one...

12. confirmed out near tahoe...a 4.8 now i think...
it was really weird, i felt nothing under me move, just the walls around me shifting...we have a basement...one that is half below ground. Maybe that's why the ground didn't seem to move for me.

very very strange feeling. I am a little freaked. I'd take a tornado over this crap any day!
