Beep beep! Arrrgh!!! The house next door has been up for sale, it is closing now. Thursday they tented it for termites. I guess the gas or something disagreed with the smoke alarm - it started Thursday, and continued beeping through to Saturday morning. Have I mentioned my bedroom faces the street? I could hear that incessant beeping all_night_long. At about 4:00 am I'm standing out in the driveway, listening and trying to pinpoint the beeping. Figured out what it was, and knew there was nothing I could do (besides be really *****y and call the Realtor at 4 am--but I didn't) I ended up moving to the couch in the back of the house.

Someone showed up this morning and disabled the smoke alarm. Tonight I will sleep!
