I freaked out -- shook my living room window and I live about five miles away -- it was loud.

But your account doesn't jibe with the other onsite reports that buildings nearby had virtually no damage. A shock wave that would have shaken your house, would have shattered windows all over the place. There was also no damage to nearby flora or trees.

IF this was a HOMICIDE BOMB that exploded prematurely, then for maximum collateral damage there should be projectiles to form the basis for killing shrapnel. This guy was an engineering student, so he would have known about that. No shrapnel damage or marks on anything: trees, sidewalk, buildings, some of it should have traveled quite a ways to shatter a window further away...
