burnt chicken.....

....made me get out of bed for 45 long minutes last night. I'll explain. I awoke in the middle of the night to the awful sound of the fire alarm. It's 4:15 a.m. and my initial intuition was to put the pillow over my ears and wait it out. I can't even explain in words how loud and obnoxious that thing is, so when the pillow idea didn't work, we had to go into the bathroom for an excape for our ears. We finally left the building to greet our equally amused neighbors outside for an early morning social event. I actually smelt smoke outside the building which was surprising since past fire alarms have been caused by excitiing things such as a fog machine at a party or just dust. This time it turned out that "unattended chicken" set the alarm off. I kinda hope their whole condo smells like the inside of a microwave after you burn something in it. Ah the joys of condo living.
