Fell asleep at around noon. At a little before two, I woke up suddenly, jarred and disoriented, and noticed that my vases on the TV stand and bookcase were rattling, in addition to the couch I'd crashed on.
I thought maybe it was washing machine related, got up to check, and then the rattling stopped. Realized it wasn't the washing machine at all. Within fifteen minutes, I was getting texts and calls from everyone I know, asking me if I'd felt the earthquake. My mom works at the hospital, and they'd apparently had to evacuate part of the building because things had fallen over and doors had jammed. It was pretty intense, even if I was just jarred from my slumber and not quite sure what was happening.

I'd imagine it'd be like a tsunami hitting central Indiana, as far as confusion and shock are concerned.

I got pretty used to earthquakes when I lived in SoCal, we had 7.9 a couple years ago that made being in a parked car feel like a rowboat in rough seas.

It's funny, I lived in California twice and never experienced an earthquake until the one I felt yesterday in New Jersey. I was on the third floor of a three story office building and it shook a lot. After the fact it has become just an interesting experience to me but at the time, when I had no idea how long it would last or how much stronger it would get, it was a little nerve wracking.

I went down to The Fort (which is a big shopping centre in town) to hand in some CVs in some of the stores. I'm also going to fill in as many online applications as I can. Factoring in the recession and the age bias on the job market, and I should have about a 0.1% of getting a job when it's all done.
