I was at work on the third floor and didn't notice a thing. A friend of mine came to me and said we had an earthquake and I asked him what the heck was he smoking? He said "for real man, I am not BSing you". Well he was right! Got home and we had a picture on the floor and a filing cabinet door open, but that was it. I was more worried about our well collapsing in.. We live in an area called "cave hill", which also had me wondering if our house was still standing or a BIG hole in the ground where it used to be..

I fell over in the back of the tractor trailer and just figured I tripped. It was hilarious.

I was working on some Jeep stuff in my shed. I decided to enjoy a nice cold beer while I was working. After a few minutes and I felt this very minor swaying but only lasted a few seconds. Nothing shook. I was just thinking either I became a lightweight or that was one strong a$$ beer. I go in the house and check my cell phone and I have people texting me if I felt the earthquake. At first I thought they had fat jokes, but then I saw it on the news. I felt a little left out because I didn't hear it and didn't get to feel the shake of the quake.
