It was... well, honestly it was kind of awesome, except for the whole coffee all over all my paperwork thing...

I was too far south but Thomas was in Virginia XD He felt it.

Yeah it was kinda scary. Second earthquake I've ever felt (the first was like 10 years ago when I was in Seattle lol).

I didn't realize it was an earthquake because...YEAH THIS IS THE EAST COAST WHAT ARE EARTHQUAKES?

My poor cat got so freaked out by it.

Seriously, what the Hell?!
Cats crying in corners, I thought a TRUCK was crashing through my front door, table fell on me, picture fell off the wall, glass rattled in the windows...
A 5.9 is probably juuuust enough to wake up Satra, Cally, and Xenon from their naps before they went back to sleep.
And I'm over here going "Holy balls! What's happening?! I'm gonna die!!!"

The man in charge lets him know that if he doesn’t perform well, he will hide him in his mustache when no one is looking and he will be trapped there forever.
He says that right now there are approximately thirty little boys and girls trapped in his mustache, and that it is a really awful place to live because it is hot in there and it smells like french onion soup.

That's pretty impressive, actually. I had no idea you guys had enough seismic activity to get one that big. Are things okay over there? Is the infrastructure still looking solid? Anyone hurt?

Nobody hurt that I know of, but they evacuated a lot of gov't buildings in DC and some of our ceiling tiles fell downstairs at work.
