Chris were you and Sue
at Home? What floor are you on in your Condo?
Man, I remember when I was in College up in Fairbanks Alaska, I was up on the top floor (8th) and when this 5+ earthquake hit, it felt like I was being flung back and forth in my loft...people say they could actually see the building swaying to and fro...freaky man!
I was kind of buzzed that night and I initially thought that my friend were screwing around and shaking the loft...after I yelled and looked down...noone...then I just hung on for the ride...what a trip that was.

we are on the 3rd floor. I was watching tv and chris on the computer listening to music. chris thought that our neighbors below us dropped something super heavy. i say no that was an earthquake. chris didn't know the we have earthquakes here. it was kinda funny to see him freak for a bit.
it felt weird when it hit us. it felt like the walls were caving in but not. did you hear the sonic wave though. that was trippy.
btw, the earthquake happen near waimanalo beach then like the domino effect...
