Did we just have an earthquake?

Seriously?

I'm laying in bed and I wake up because it's being shaken back and forth. It lasted for about ten seconds. I thought I was crazy.

Then when it stopped I jumped out of bed, the kids came running downstairs asking what that was.

I guess I'll find out in the morning asking other people if they felt it, or if everyone in this house is just plain nuts...

***UPDATE***

It was a 5.4 magnitude in Southern Illinois. It's the strongest to hit this area since 1968. I'm sure it will be on your news somewhere. It was not far from Evansville IN. They felt it in Chicago (IL), St. Louis (MO), Ohio, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Alabama, Michigan. We may have aftershocks for a few days. I just hope it isn't the smaller one before a bigger one.

Yippie.

We had an aftershock a little after 10:00. We didn't feel it though because we were driving.

Hmm...Are you sure it wasn't my stomach?

I had a mean hungry goin' on about that time.

Well, maybe your stomach added to it. But I pretty sure it was the 5.2 earthquake that did most of the shaking.
