Please correct

Out of town job. Felt like getting out of the city for a while.

Isn't felt past tense?

Shouldn't it be feel like getting out of the city for awhile?

Please explain

It is obviously very casual English, since there is no subject for the verb. There is no reason to find fault with 'felt'-- we assume the feeling was in the past, and there is no context that contradicts this assumption.
