I thought this was TORNADO alley?

We just had our 2nd earthquake in 24 hours in Oklahoma! I missed the 2 am one, but this one shook so hard my china cabinet shimmied and our light fixtures swayed for several minutes. Everyone I know in the state is on Facebook talking about it...250 updates of "Hey...did y'all feel that?" haha!

That is craziness!

I know! 5.7, the strongest in Oklahoma's history! It freaked the cats and puppies right out, Jess.

I think the continent is going to break apart just like Pangaea did. This theory is based on no research whatsoever!

I trust you -- you made a B in Geology!

Earthquakes in Oklahoma? O_o

I'm glad y'all are okay, sweetie.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

It was like a dog talked, or something. I mean, THAT weird. And thank you!

[julia-here.livejournal.com]

It's weird that it can be felt over such a wide area- that's what you get for living on a sedimentary plain, I guess. Out here over the subduction zone, everything's so busted up that the energy doesn't travel far. Which is good, because Mt. Rainier's getting a 3 at least once a week lately.

Hope everything you love is uncracked.

That is true -- it still blew my mind to jump immediately on facebook, haha, and see people from my hometown 3 hours away posting Earthquake! It was apparently felt in north Texas, too -- they just cannot let Oklahoma have something of its own, haha.

So *very* weird. Maybe 2012 *is* the end of days!!

Glad you're okay.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I think we are seeing portents. I am calling the Winchesters. And thank you!

[tabaqui]

Ah ha ha - send 'em my way, when you're *cough* done with them. I sure I can keep 'em busy.

It was felt here in Missouri, although not by me :) All my Facebook friends are talking about it. I have know idea why I didn't feel it, our house looks like it could crumble at the slightest wind, let alone an earthquake.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Our house does, too. I was concerned, but it was more big overture, little show this time. At least we don't have to worry about breaking apart and falling into the ocean, haha.

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

That's all kinds of scary. Glad you're ok.

What's up with the crazy weather lately?

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

It wasn't quite as flashy as some of the tornadoes I've experienced, but the bizarre factor really gave it added omph. If I were Giles, I would be hitting the books.

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

If you see a rain of frogs, let me know immediately. I'll start sharpening stakes.

[ladycat777.livejournal.com]

Just glad you're all right. How'd J take it?

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

We are all ok, although Max was freaked. Jonah slept right through it. It rumbled the living room and dining room most. At first I thought it was a semi trying to go down my little street, haha.

[texanfan.livejournal.com]

Nothing precious broke I hope!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Nope, all ok!

[lycomingst.livejournal.com]

They get your attention, don't they? But I'll take them over tornadoes any day.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Agreed. It was certainly a new experience, though!

Well, you've made Josh's night.

*holds him while he laughs the abs back*

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, I am glad I could help with that, hee.

[anelith.livejournal.com]

I'm glad it didn't do any real damage to your china! Must have been a bit scary though.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

We had an aftershock last night! During a tornado warning! There is graffiti popping up with "Welcome to Oklahoma: home of the Quakenado," haha! And thank you -- my gravy boat is hearty and hale!
