Leave a message at the BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP

I now know my smoke alarms will likely wake me up if there's ever a need.

About a half hour ago, I heard a beep. Just a dream, I thought, rolled back over.

Beep.

No...not again. Not when I have to be up in a few hours.

Beep.

Damn! Battery going dead in my smoke alarm. Problem is, all my alarms are interconnected, and there are 6 of them, and when one is dying, they all beep. So I had to figure out which one was dying on me. Of course, it's one on the 9 foot ceilings.

Back upstairs, look for a 9V, throw on some sweats, go get the ladder, climb up, change the battery, put the ladder away, and now I can't sleep.

AAAACK!
