A Little Too Close For Comfort

So, I'm sitting here playing Mafia Wars, Vampire Wars and half watching King of the Hill, when I hear a rumbling noise from outside. Sonic boom? Then the house starts to shake. At the same time, there was a *boom*! It felt like a truck hit the house. It rattled it pretty good. Objects fell. We haven't had things fall during earthquakes since the 1994 Northridge quake. Find out later, it was a 5.0. Decent enough. The epicenter was only a couple of miles from here. We were right on top of it.
