It was fun.  I was eating lunch at my desk and it started to shake!

I didn't feel it at all. I don't know how they felt it as far as Vegas.

Oddly enough I was in LA at the time of the quake. Probably on my way to the airport, or else standing in line at the airport. Didn't feel a thing, didn't know it had happened until plane landed in Boston.

If you were at LAX you were actually pretty far from the epicenter, so it isn't a big surprise you didn't feel it (especially if you were in a car at the time.)
