I'm waiting for Japan to implode and overflow with nuclear effluvia that will fly into the atmosphere and head straight to San Diego.  It's possible that I have been watching too much TV, but in all seriousness, this is a real, god-awful crisis composed of NUCLEAR ATOMS.  IN AEROSOL FORM.  So, for once, I'm only about 25% overreacting.
Which got me thinking - of course - about what I would take with mewhen if I had to evacuate in a hurry. What I would take with me as I fled, in my IKEA bag, since the rats ate my Samsonites?  I mean, I want to be thoroughly prepared to join the giant traffic jam on the 805.  So here's my list in the order they occurred to me, not in order of importance:
Which got me thinking - of course - about what I would take with me
- My migraine meds
 - Toby's flea pills and heartworm meds
 - my bras
 - cash
 - Tori & Woogie (who are cremated and in lovely cedar keepsake boxes)
 - my hypoallergenic pillows
 
- my laptop + external hard drives, ipod, ereader, plus charger cables for all of it
 - there's probably some irreplaceable papers around here I'll need for, oh, the rest of my life
 - my expensive prescription reading glasses
 - jewelry?
 - CLOTHING - like, clean underwear, anyone? what are you going to wear those bras under, dipshit?

First thing's first! A motorcycle. That way there's no traffic to get stuck in. A laptop and a mobile phone with all the relevant cables. Food. At least three days worth of clean clothes (you can go all neanderthal and wash the dirty ones in a stream someplace). A LARGE bottle of vodka. My camera and two tanks of spare fuel....
Strangely enough, this list is quite similar to my 'what would you take to survive a zom...' OH AND MY GIRLFRIEND TOO! Yup can't forget her. Except this list doesnt have machetes and shotguns!
Enjoying reading your blog so far!
