I was lying down and felt it. Wasn't enough to get me up though as these small ones aren't uncommon.

I suppose I should earthquake proof my apartment though, you know those twist tie things that come with some furniture that are meant to be anchored into the wall? I've never used 'em.

At some point with a big one I'll have some shelving and what not fall over. But I've been over a decade here and I haven't needed them yet.

Those are usually to prevent furniture falling on to children if they were to climb it, etc.
At minimum it'll save you from having to buy a new TV. Big LCD panels are pretty fragile.
