I live near LA. There I was exchanging Easter pleasantries with my family when my mother suddenly says "We're having an earthquake."
I looked at her skeptically and said "No, we're not." Then the shaking got worse, everything started waving back and forth and we all scrambled for a doorway. It lasted for a long time and it felt like we were at sea with this tossing and turning type motion. Everything and everyone was fine in the end. It apparently triggered some little aftershocks, but I didn't feel those. A lot of people are on edge after that experience.
