so just sitting here watching the Yankees slaughter the Braves, when heard this grrrrrrooooombbbb type sound, then the house shook like crazy. then this awful shaking feeling that went for at least a minute. Yuck. I didn't like. 5.2 on the scale. Bleh!

pfft. NOTHING HAPPENED!!! Melbourne loves a good over reaction.

Didn't feel a thing, the neighbours phoned up saying OMG ARE YOU OKAY ... I thought she must have been drinking until I checked Facebook, lol!

Seriously you didn't feel it???? You may have been a bit further from the epicenter than us here but let me tell you, I def felt it, alright :D It was quite unpleasant, tbh. It kind of felt like that rocking feeling you sometimes get when you are really tired or JUST about to drop off to sleep. Can't say I enjoyed the experiance. What I AM enjoying is the mickey-taking we're having about it all, I love the Melbourne self-mocking sense of humour :D

I'm loving the reaction too. Hilarious.

It's weird we didn't feel it because the next door neighbours certainly did and were quite worried- hence phoned immediately to see if we were okay- didn't feel a thing! The dogs didn't move, the cats didn't move. I have no idea how it could have been felt 50 meters away and yet not in our house!!!
