Earthquake!

Experienced a pretty big (5.4) earthquake here at work, with the epicenter around 15 miles from where I live (!). Whole building was shaking, and I could see the glass windows appear to be bowing outwards. Scary sight.

Had to do the duck and cover thing (heh) underneath my desk. Thankfully, nobody was hurt, and the kids are okay. Unfortunately, my Marvel Super Squad figures fell off the bookshelf, but they're PVC anyway.

Bad news is that we've had around 35 aftershocks in and around the original epicenter. Hopefully there's not a bigger one coming around...
