Having survived one fire, I can remember standing in the middle of my room, thinking, "Well, this is that moment - what would you take with you from a burning building?" And just as quickly, I realized that there are no material objects that are precious enough to risk my life for. I made a grab at my dresser, then headed out.
Once I was outside, I looked at my hands, and saw that I had taken my watch and my keys. Practical to the end!!
(But I didn't own any pets at the time...)
