meara, you are now in a town that also gets earthquakes! Whee!
5.6 is pretty sporty. Fun.

Really long, although never hard enough to trigger the "jump under the desk" reflexes.
Coincidently enough, I was delivered my personal 3-day emergency supply pack this afternoon, since I'm now officially on the A team for the Emergency Operations Center.
I guess I should get home soon. There better not be a huge one while I'm on the bridge. Maybe I'll take my emergency pack with me just in case the approach ramps go out if a big one hits. The bridge isn't supposed to fall down, just the approaches go wonky. My bridge. BB people are out. of. luck.

Quake finally made the news.

Bwah!
This is so cool! I haven't looked at this map before: [link] It's the wave form map, with 60 drum recorders' data lined up. You can see that it lasted a minute.

I think it is super cool that these days I can hear about a quake as it happens, and then have people link me to scientific pages about it moments later. Awesome!
I love that something big happens and the collective first instinct is "crap! I gotta get online and post about this!" (Which is exactly what my reaction would be in like circumstances.)

Art Crawl!!!
Anyone else watch Nip/Tuck ? Wasn't the show w/i a show a total GA thing? I loved that Sean became the "star" and am sad that Christian betrayed Daphne Zuniga but cannot say that I am surprised.

From Java's link above:
Location Quality: Excellent
What does that mean, earthquake-wise?
