Nope, don't wish I were there. ;-)
I hope I can get them in the carrier early tomorrow morning. The tsunami threat looks to be very serious right now. I hope I still have a house this time tomorrow.
Wow, that's a huge worry. I hope the tsunami peters out for everybody who got the warning.
Just got the latest warning a couple of minutes ago. No change. Tsunami on its way. Warning sirens will start sounding at around 6am HST.
This'll cause panic in Honolulu! Think of all those tourists who'll be on their way to the beach for sunrise! The rest of us will be getting our emergency supplies together...

So what are you going to do, where will you go? I imagine 14,000 ft. elevation is fairly safe. ;-)
My stuff is packed apart from a couple of things in the dryer. The cats are here so it should be easy to catch them.
The first part of the plan is to make sure I'm out of the tsunami zone and if the waves are big then it's off to the office (a few hundred feet above sea level).
The next part of the plan is to think about the plan after that!
I was hoping to get a little sleep tonight (that was part of the plan as well!) but I'm giving up on the idea.
