I felt it too! I woke up, and my whole bed and house were shaking. I yelled out, "Our house is shaking! Why is our house shaking???" LOL I think someone told me it was something to do with the guys paving our street. I thought that maybe it was an earthquake and went back to bed. It was kinda scary though....

I felt it. I have this really cluttered book case in my room next to my bed, so I woke up by all my lotion bottles crashing down on me. You know...one thing falls, they all fall down
Well I'm sitting there and I'm like "MOTHER WE'RE DYING!" and she yells back "It's only an earthquake. Go back to bed"

OMG, I was in my bed... and my eyes shot open. All of a sudden I heard everything shaking, and I felt like my head was spinning. I've never been in an earthquake before. The only other time was like a split second and I slept through it. This one I actually FELT. I was so drowsy that I actually thought it was a dream, though! You know those dreams where you are falling and you actually physically feel like you're falling? I thought it was like that: I was dreaming about an earthquake, and I felt it. Unfortunately, it really WAS an earthquake.
