Who was up at 5:30 Eastern Standard Time? I was because I was working. I felt tremmers from the earthquake that struck southern Illinois today...it was crazy.

I woke up and heard some things rattling slightly, but I was too tired to really care and went back to sleep.

I went to bed early last night because I wasn't feeling well. When I first woke up this morning, I thought I was late for work. Then I looked at the clock ... 4:51 AM. Dangblasted, I thought ... and went back to sleep.

Then, when my alarm went off at 6 AM, the first thing I heard was: "Well, did you feel that earthquake this morning?" My "waking up" brain thought, 'What the hell are you talking about? How could we feel a quake in California?' Then I thought ... oh no ... hope it wasn't a bad one. Then the news guy said, "You might not have, but it WAS centered in southern IL." It was then that I realized I probably was awakened by the earthquake, even though it took me a few minutes to actually wake up ... lol.
