Woah.. Time warp... It's 3 already

sociallydistressed she's on the other coast

we have a tsunami alert siren that goes off Tuesday at noon.

I know

it's the Tuesday at noon warning siren.

What's it for?

oooooohhh I did not know that

that would set me on edge quite frankly

it's to let us know that it's Tuesday at noon.

you get used to it

partly because it's so predictable

Back in my hometown, we had sirens like that on Tuesday at 6pm EST.

sounds... useful

Interesting...

my mom freaked out when she heard that we have a tsunami alert system. She has a chemical spill alert system.

guess which happens more-- a chemical spill in a port city with an Exxon, Chevron, Dow, and two bridges-- or a tsunami in San Francisco

we have a nuclear disaster system here

nice!

there has only been one time since I moved here that a tsunami alert was appropriate-- and the sirens didn't go off

it wasn't Tuesday at noon.
