Felt my first earthquake

It was yesterday, some time in the afternoon, while I was sitting at my cubicle at work. I've never felt an earthquake before so I didn't know what it was, until someone mentioned that it might be an earthquake. Well if it is, Twitter would know! That was my immediate thought. So I checked Twitter. Sure enough, basically everyone on the east coast was talking about it! Apparently it was a 5.8 that started in Virginia and spread through the whole east coast! It was quite exciting, I have to say. May be a strange thing for someone to say experiencing an earthquake, but it was my first one and nothing bad happened, so excited I was! :P
