Air Bag Light on!

After I started my G today, I noticed the air bag warning light on the dash start to blink. It won't stop. I did nothing to the car but drive it to work. All the way home I kept picturing the bag deploying in my face for no reason. I know that's a case of run away imagination but what if I do get in a collision & they don't function? I have 19k miles on it with never a problem.
Anyone have a similar story & what did the dealer say when it went in? They won't take my car for another 5 days, so I'm stuck driving it in this condition.
Should I be worried?

Do you have any idea how long it takes for a dealer to replace it? I usually wait for my car to be serviced due to the distance of the dealer & hate to leave it there.

Search Airbag warning light here or in the DYI section. There is a way to reset it (only take 3 minutes) and it will save you some money. Maybe some of your connections are loose because there are a bunch of them. If you have removed your seat or unplugged any wiring harness (and then started your car) I would do the reset thing. If not, take it to the dealer
