How you know what is important...


The local meteorologist just called my cell phone to tell me that a tornado warning is for my area and to get to a safe place. (Yes, you can sign up to have weathercalls on your cell phone ... its awesome for weather geeks like me.)

I took my dog, my glass of wine, my Maglite flashlight, my blanket, and my cell phone into the bathroom with me. I left my Chinese food sitting on my desk. Now I know what's important ...

It's okay to be a weather geek--I get weather alerts sent to my Blackberry all the time. Better safe than sorry!

Sometimes I think I'm lucky to have mostly hurricanes to contend with, at least we have a huge heads up before it hits.

Haha, don't forget the wine!

PS - Right after mom called and told me to stay downstairs, Tank (the big boy) hopped up in my lap and stayed put for the rest of the night. Think they know something we don't know when it comes to weather?

A + for wine usage in a natural disaster.
