I could u_u Probably because I was awake because most people that were sleeping didn't feel it, but my headboard went "bang bang bang" on the wall and the base of the bed kind of poltergeist-lifted 2 times, but all that super quickly in 5 seconds and then, nothing O.o
Wow. Are you sure that wasn't the neighbors next door? ;) Earthquakes are really weird. During the one last year, me and my friends in the house started out by hearing a low rumble, like a big truck going by outside. Then it got louder and things started shaking but you could tell that the ground was moving up and down, not side to side. We all panicked and ran outside. We occasionally get little 4.0 quakes where the windows would rattle but nothing like the 5.8 one last year. At least we're not on the West Coast like California and aren't in danger of falling into the ocean. LOL!
