The original usage came from the not-so-far-from-Boston region of the country when a friend had no other word to describe how he felt about his friend--a girl that he cared for deeply--announcing her marriage to another guy.
T: Well, I just wanted you to know that I'm getting married to John.
J: Okay...I see.
T:Well, how does that make you feel?
J: How does that make me feel?! Honestly, I feel woobly!
