when I was a kid we lived in so cal, we used to get little quakes all the time. I would always sleep right through them how do I know this...my family would be all around me trying to wake me up, lol. I remember one during the day and you could see the hard wood floors move it was pretty interesting.

it is a little unsettling--just stay away from windows and loose objects on your walls and you will be fine.
