Inherent with being a weatherman, there are many risks and hazards that we face every day. For example...umm...hmmm. Okay, there are virtually no hazards in being a weatherguy...other than getting things thrown at you if you get the forecast wrong too many times. =) But this morning...a new hazard popped up.

That hazard - being tempted to adopt a little animal! We do the 'Pet of the Week' on our sunrise newscast, every Wednesday at around 20 minutes after six. It's when we'll show a deserving animal that is looking for a new home. It's typically a fun-loving dog, or an adorable little cat. Today's pet of the week...well, I may be adopting it myself.

This little cat had fun, fluffy ears, was purring like a maching, and just seemed like a great addition to the household. And so now I'm sitting here trying to decide whether or not to adopt this little guy. I know my cat at home right now...well, she hisses at all living things, whether it be another person, another cat, a dog, a horse, an ostrich...you get the point. =) So that's a concern...but maybe she'd enjoy the company? So this is what the weatherman is thinking about at 7:15am. No one warned me I'd be tempted to get a new little animal when filling in on the morning show! =)

So there we go...my somewhat random blog about animals. If you were looking for some weather...well...okay.

Warmer weather is back tomorrow, with 70s expected into the weekend. Should stay mostly dry, too, with more sunshine on the way over the next several days.

There you go...just in case...for some odd reason...you expected to read about weather in the 'weather blog.' =)
