That's what my brain was saying when it woke me from me deep slumber.

Nope. Slept right through it.

I was awake and felt it. For a moment I thought my armageddon nightmare had come true. In my nightmare I experienced massive earth tremors one after another. I even looked out to see if there was a mushroom cloud. Very frightening.
