Bouncy!
So there was a 5.6 quake just a few miles from me at 8:05pm tonight. I was still at work, on the 2nd floor. The building started shaking like mad, growing over time. Took me about five seconds to figure out what was happening, and then I crawled under my desk for the remaining fifteen or twenty seconds.
When I got home, my downstairs neighbour (who's usually asleep by 7pm or so) asked me if I'd felt the "big jolt". She said that the whole building was making a cracking noise, and she was nervous that my apartment was going to fall into hers.
Inside, I found rather a lot of stuff on the floor. One picture off the hanger, another at a 30 degree angle, a frying pan that had been hanging on a hook now sitting in the kitchen sink next to the hook that used to be in the ceiling.
In all, it was great! Better than anything at Disneyland.
Still haven't seen Branwen since I got home. She didn't even come out when I opened the treat bag. I expect she's still hiding somewhere.
