Wednesday

So.

The lining of my sleep mask peeled off sometime last night, got folded up, and somehow made its way between my eyelids to scratch my left eye.  Here's hoping it clears up soon on its own. Lots of eye drops today!

About an hour later, I was sitting on the couch, working on tomorrow's dump, when I heard something beeping. Like a car or fire alarm those three high-pitched beeps with a pause, but much quieter. I looked around and the only thing burning was a candle. I walked around the apartment and, it was definitely the loudest in the living room. Tested the living room fire alarm and NOPE wow, that was loud. So ... what the fuck? I walked around the living room and realized it was coming from the couch? Right under where I was sitting?

I lifted the couch cushion and there was the fire alarm from the house on Indiana that McKitterick put under there because it was randomly going off. Guess he forgot about it (as did I) because wow it sure was going off OH MY GOD SO LOUD so loud when not covered by the couch cushion. I couldn't figure out how to turn it off. Just pressing the buttons doesn't seem to work, of course.

I put the couch cushion back, along with the additional muffling of my butt, and turned up the stereo but I can still hear it.

This really is peak My Life. 😂

eta: ahhh, thank dogs I just thought to flip it over and there's a deactivate switch on the back. BLESSED PEACE.
