I felt my first earthquake last night....although at the time I didn't realize that's what it was. I was asleep, when the sound of rattling and the feeling that something fell on my bed woke me up. It took me a few seconds to fully wake up. I assumed that the rattling had been something falling off a shelf or wall, because that happens occasionally in my room due to my makeshift wall hangings. However, once I woke up completely, I realized nothing on my bed was out of the ordinary. I couldn't figure it out. Had I left something on my bed and it had fallen off, tugging at the bedspread on the way down? Was it just a dream? Or possibly my room was haunted. Telling myself it was a dream seemed the least scary, so that's' what I did and fell back asleep.
This morning when I got to work, one of my coworkers asked if I'd felt the earthquake. At first I thought no, but when he said it happened around 1AM, I remembered my night-time disturbance and that when I had looked at the clock it said 1:03. So...that explains the bed. Nothing fell on it....it was just moving. Yikes!

We're surprised you didn't mention it on the phone. I hope you don't experience any that are really scary.
