Wife woke up in the middle of the night and asked me if I'd felt an aftershock. Apparently the dog woke her up just before the rumble. I was dead to the world.

Also...you people need to sleep.

It woke my wife up, and she woke me up. I felt the bed vibrating a bit. It felt pretty similar to the Germantown earthquake last year; nothing like Tuesday's.
