It was kind of weird last night to wake up, than have the room start shaking. (I had wondered whether it was an earthquake, but than figured I had imagined it as an earthquake seems pretty unlikely.)
For those who like in areas with a lot more earthquakes, I haven't grown up feeling any, so will have made this thread.
information (http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsus/Quakes/us2008qza6.php). apparently, it wasn't that big, but is unusual where I live to have feelable earthquakes.

I felt some shaking this morning, I thought I was still really sleepy and imaging it. I could have been imaging it. I think I was, but then again I've never been in an earthquake either.

We had an earthquake in the UK a few weeks ago, is the first one i have felt...very strange, i didn't like it.
My sister was so shaken up by it, she rang me at 2 in the morning and i sent my husband down to make her a cuppa.
It woke me up. I was conscious enough to register that it was an earthquake and that it had stopped, then I went back to sleep. When I got up this morning, I wasn't sure whether or not I had dreamed it so I checked Yahoo news right away. I didn't feel the aftershock (or whatever it was) this morning even though I was wide awake and at the mall.

It woke me up too - startled me before I realized what it was. Just not the kind of thing we have around here very often. I did feel the aftershock at around 10:30 this morning, but not the others (apparently there were at least three).

I slept through the main one at 5:30, but felt the aftershock about 11:15 Friday morning. It felt vaguely euphoric (that might be just because I've never felt an earthquake before though).

I felt both. The first one I was in a dealership garage by myself in the dark when all the garage doors started rattling :unsure: I felt better when I saw the pickup truck next to me rocking and I figured out it was an earthquake.
