LOL about the freeway thing, Lisa. I have heard them say that if one hits while you're driving that it feels like a blow-out, but I have never experienced it myself. My mother, grandmother, and my aunt all live in Chino Hills, and my mom said that her house had some pictures fall and the glass broke, but that is it.
I think maybe that is why they and you got some broken bottles and glass. Perhaps because you live in the hills makes it more intense. Where I live is about as flat as anything can be.
Thank goodness all your fish tank did was lose a little water. If that had broken, that would have been a nightmare!
You are a true Californian now, though, since you've had your first real quake!
Welcome to the club!
