One wild night last night.

No, I'm not talking about partying 'till the break of dawn.

I'm talking about in the wee hours when I felt my ENTERE BUILDING shaking.

I at first thought it was a dream, but then I found out St. Louis had a Magnitude 5.2 earthquake last night.

I wasn't expecting it....but then I remembered we're on a fault line. -CSM

My sister slept through it.
When I found out, I was actually relieved. With all the hype that the geology community has put on New Madrid, I had been afraid that when it went off it would wipe out all 6 states around it.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

That's pretty cool, man. I've never been in an earthquake, and probably won't ever be. I'm glad everything's all right on your end, in that respect.

Awesome....I don't wake up for anything below a 6.0

In southern california earthquakes are the norm. Though we haven't had one higher than 5.4 in the past couple of years.

The second part minus the trashed.

That said, I would rather not deal with those Westcoast earthquakes.

The focal point was about an hour away from me. So guess what I did?

I slept. I f**king slept.

And oh hey, the aftershock was a few hours ago. Guess what. I MISSED THAT TOO.

It's like the plates are throwing a party and they didn't invite me.

There was a minor earthquake nearabouts Toronto a few years ago. It felt like a large truck was passing by my house. My parents blamed me before they saw it on the news.

This wasn't the west coast.

I actually felt like I was falling apart. -CSM

The only time I've felt an Earthquake was in Coast Rica, I think. It was a brief one, tough.
