Yeah live south of Richmond VA, border of NC, felt it here, at first I thought it was me having vertigo or something b/c I've felt bad all day, and was feeling dizzy earlier, and thought to myself (Ohshitson, I'm starting to feel like the house is shaking time to go to the Dr. or something) then I get a call from some family asking if I felt the EQ and I was like, Oh, that was an Earthquake? I thought I was going insane, glad i wasn't :X

Yep, I've got a few friends on fb complaining about their cellphones not sending/receiving calls or text.

The news is saying it lasted 15 secs but it seemed alot longer here in Fredericksburg, Va. My Mom is visiting and she had time to have her coffee jump out of her cup, scream earthquake and get down the stairs to wait it out under the kitchen table with my Daughter and I. Thought the house was collapsing at first. Now we have an assortment of toys, books and video games to get back on shelves. Miraculously all the pictures stayed on the walls which makes me wonder how bad they are at hanging them in DC since the news said they fell off the walls at the Capitol Building and it's way further from the epicenter.

I don't think it was a minute....Idk I didn't really pay too much attn...I was more or less deciding if it I was losing my mind and imagining things (I wouldn't have doubted that today) or if it was legit.

Maybe............... but we do get the influx of big city hookers twice a year during furniture market at least. Interesting conversations abound at the local Waffle House during those exiting weeks!
