Er, I don't THINK I'm hallucinating... (UPDATE: I wasn't)
About 3 minutes ago, roughly 7:18 am, the building where I work shook for 5-10 seconds. I could hear it as well as feel it, so I don't think it's just a caffeine withdrawal thing. Now, wind loud enough to hear inside the building isn't unusual, but this is a rather large, solid building, so I don't think the wind be enough to make it shake on its own (plus a glance out the nearest window shows no wind). So... earthquake? Vibration from an explosion? I don't know, but earthquake seems the most likely. Which then brings up the question of aftershocks...
*sighs* back to work.
UPDATE: Nevada Earthquake felt across Idaho And I was only two minutes off for the time!
And here is a more local news source on it.
Oh, and here's a segment of a seismograph from somewhere near Yellowstone

When I was in 8th grade, there was a small earthquake (centered in Lake Erie). Those of us on the school's second floor felt it strongly. The kids on the first floor didn't even notice.
Ahh, good times...good times...
I remember one other earthquake. I was pretty young, young enough that I had no clue what was going on, and for some reason I was alone in my parents' kitchen. I remember getting up and pushing on the walls, trying to make them shake again... I was too young to be scared by it, too; I just thought it was a bit weird.
