Earthquake!

According to USGS website, a major earthquake occurred at 3:40:41 PM (PDT) on Sunday, April 4, 2010.
The magnitude 7.2 event occurred 26 km (16 miles) SW of Guadalupe Victoria, Baja California, Mexico.
The hypocentral depth is 10 km ( 6 miles).

I was at the dinner table study and some what procrastinating.  Then I felt it.  At first, I was like "Is the vase (on the table) moving?" After staying still and staring at the vase for a few seconds,  I immediately knew it was an earthquake.  Nothing major happened where I live (LA county)
