I felt the one at 2 o'clockish today. I (being my lazy college student self was still in bed) sat up and asked my also-still-in-bed roommate

Shaka: Was that an earthquake?
Roomie: Yes.
Shaka: I haven't felt one of those in years. Cool.
Roomie: It's not cool.
Shaka: Yes it is! Little earthquakes are cool. Big ones are scary. This one was cool.

I think she would have thrown a pillow at me if she weren't so sleepy.

I was napping. My first groggy thought was for my monitor--is it going to fall and break or ooze or whatever LCDs do? And then it hit me -- there's a seven foot tall bookcase next to my bed. I went rigid, and the phony voice of our local news anchor reeled through my mind: To put a human face to the recent tremor, we go to Nancy out in ----- ------, where a self-confessed bibliophile was crushed to death this afternoon by her bookcase! Cause of death? Leather-bound Complete Works of Shakespeare to the head! Teeheheh!

He always seems so gleeful about the ironical deaths/pathetic human interest stories.
