So the good news is that we're going to Nashville after all. The only major difference being that we're taking the cat along for the ride.
The bad news is that this is why:
Okay, so do I get to panic now?

About Me
- Overflowing Brain
- I'm a 26 year old former teacher turned full time graduate student. I live in Southern California after a 3 year stint in New Orleans with my husband Slappy (formerly The Fiance) and our cats (yea, we're those people). In February of 2006 I was diagnosed with Chiari Malformation, which is a fancy way of saying that my brain was too big for my skull (get it? overflowing brain). On November 27th, 2007 I had brain surgery which allows my brain to exist indefinitely in my spinal canal. 13 staples, one cow heart lining and a multitude of doctors and medications later, I'm living a much improved decompressed life.

Panic!
What do you do about jobs when there's a hurricane? Does your employer just say "See you when it stops raining?"
To continue our eerily similar lives, I too went to Nashville for my first hurricane evacuation.
It rained the whole time we were there, we ate at some nice resturantas & drove back.
The. End.
(And we just left the tape on the windows becuase two days later we left because there was another hurricane coming. But that is a story for another day I suppose. I'll spoil the ending though and tell you that it didn't hit either.)
There's plenty of time for this thing to disapate or turn away from NOLA. The good thing is that the first forecast position is usually wrong...Katrina was forecast to hit the panhandle of FL. So don't panic, yet. but do clean out your fridge before you leave :-)

Oh geez, Katie. Would you panic already? ;) And I second Claire, only to add Make sure all the toilets are flushed.
Why worry? It's already weakening!! Enjoy your trip!
Psshaw. I lived in south Louisiana for four years, and I think we only had two hurricanes hit in all that time. Odds are, this one won't hit either.

It still has a long way to come before it hits anywhere. Don't panic yet, but fill your freezer with ice (water-filled milk jugs work well). A full freezer will keep for three days if the power goes out!
Am I on your way to Nashville? :)
