Ya, I was here at work in OKC and didn't even notice it, but some of my coworkers did. I work in a lab, and back in extractions they said all of the glassware was shaking....not sure what I was doing!

I didn't feel anything. I was in the middle of a meeting in the BoK tower when this apparently happened, and I only found out about it when I got back to my office.

Our earthquake was initially reported at 4.5, then downgraded to 4.3, now upgraded to 5.1. Go figure:

I didn't feel anything in Tulsa! Maybe at that point I was driving or it happened while I was at Chris Nickel in Broken Arrow. But didn't feel or notice a thing.

Didn't feel or know anything about this till I read it here. A 4.5 magnitude would blend right in with Ft. Sill's Live Firing exercises where they make the glass on the whole building rattle

12 - 14 hour days, ouch

My mind is mush after 10, anything more just becomes pointless for me.

I am not a morning person at all, unfortunately our youngest has become accustomed to waking up at 4:30 or 5am. My wife and I are trying to get him to stay up latter so maybe he'll slip in to a normal hour.

ok, so this is the BS thread, so just going to let you guys know of an idea I have for this weekend.

I have a black tie benefit dinner thing to go to this Saturday. Big shindig to benefit the children's hospital here. My wife usually goes with me but she can't b/c of being out of town with my daughter on a soccer tournament trip.

So, our office has an entire table and someone else is going to use my wife's ticket.

So, since my all dolled up wife won't be riding with me, I'm thinking of taking the Jeep doorless and topless to the event in black tie dress. It's Valet parking, so I'm pretty sure I'll get some looks and stares as I pull up and as I leave the event.

Yeah! And if you don't have someone snap your picture as your hand the keys over to valet parking, it DIDN'T happen!
