I felt it while I was reading stuff online, sitting in this computer chair in my living room in upstate NY... which is exactly where I was and what I was doing a little over a year ago when I felt the earthquake that occurred in Canada.
Guess that means I need a life...

I was sitting on my couch and my ma and pa were in the room too-when it first started I honestly didn't know what was going on...I've never experienced one! It shook the house and ground but it wasn't that long...my doggies did not like it at all-whining and looking at us lol!! Didn't feel any aftershocks though...

I was sitting in my T waiting room in a Boston suburb. Just felt it a little and thought it was a quake but wasn't really sure.

I'm in the NE US. Some people at my job saw furniture shake, but a lot of people, including me, who were down the block didn't feel anything.

I'm in Baltimore but use to live in Southern California so knew what it was (eventually :-) and got outside. My townhouse is old and "cheap" and my husband was in bed just over my head, the noise was pretty ominous and I didn't want the ceiling crashing in on me. My husband said the cat disappeared off the bed pretty fast,
 It took me longer than it should have to quite figure it out, we're on the water and the house has no basement so we're sitting on a cement slab; I realized it should not have been shaking but thought it was me, that there was something physically wrong with me and my nerves.

In the largest federal building (largest building at all) in Washington, DC, where I work.
Scary, scary, scary, especially while walking down all those flights of steps not knowing if it was an earthquake or...something else.

I heard there were cracks in the Washington Monument - why do I feel like I'm in a Will Smith movie?

I was at school, sitting at my desk - the principal came in and told us that everyone would need to leave the building.
