2:00 am

2:00 AM on Tuesday Morning.

Woke up to a very annoying sound. The fire alarm/Smoke detector was going off. I woke Chris up, before I could figure out where it was coming from, Chris had the detector hanging from the wall, the sound still going strong. Went out the front door, realized it was the building. No smoke, no fire. Still very LOUD!

So we slipped on some shoes, sweatshirts, grabbed our keys and phones and walked outside.

Fire Trucks, Ladder Trucks, the whole shebang show up. After about 45 minutes, they let us back inside. Did I mention that my alarm goes off at 3:30am, and its now 2:45? So NOT FAIR!

It was interesting to see what people grabbed. For the most part the men were all in old men cargo shorts, crew socks and tennis shoes/sandals with their polos tucked in. The women in their nighties, slippers, purses strapped around them and holding on to their cats.
