Default earthquake?

Did anyone else in socal feel that earthquake? It happend 30 minutes ago. According to the news, it was a 4.5. I dont know about you guys, but earthquakes scare the hell out of me. Im hoping there arent going to be any aftershocks...

I'm in Iraq right now. My wife called and told me about it. I looked it up on this website:

http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/119-34.html

Looks like it was 4.5 on the scale and 4 miles NNW of Chatsworth Like TaiMonkey stated.
