7. All is well here
No loss of power (our power cables are underground anyway) No apparent damage...Just me freaking out.

8. I slept only two hours last night.
Not that I get a great deal of sleep anyway... but I got even less than normal.

I am okay. Just really really tired.

5. Was it a big slap or a roller?
The rumbling/rolling kind scare me. The single jolt type, not so much.
