I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas, or Hanukkah, or whatever it is you celebrate. :) Our supposed-to-be-relaxing morning began at the crack of dawn (6am) with an earsplitting fire alarm. Not exactly the way you want to wake up on Christmas morning. The alarms in our building have gone 'rogue' (so says Taylor), and it's beginning to wear on us. Something about the humidity, getting into the alarm boxes in the parking garage, and short circuiting the alarms in the entire building. And it is LOUD. We have to stuff kitty into her carrier box (after dragging her out from under wherever she attempted to seek refuge from the noise), make sure we remember the key so we don't lock ourselves out, run down 3 flights of stairs with our hands over our ears, and stand, shivering, outside with our equally happy neighbors until the fire department comes and turns it off (obviously we've done this before). Then, since we know it was a humid day, we go back inside and wait for it to happen again.
