 Aaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!

Why can't the Fire Dept. test their stupid fire alarms on the actual day stated on the flyers they handed out? Why must they do it 2 days after they said they would? Why can't they do it at a reasonable hour of the day? Like after I wake up, whenever that might be, and whenever I feel like it. It's not amusing to be yanked out of bed by the first alarm test thinking your apartment is on fire on the day you finally decide to let yourself sleep in. It's definitely not fun to run around the room trying to find the most minimally presentable clothes to slip into just in case it wasn't a test and was actually a fire drill. And it's most certainly not entertaining to almost walk out the door to find out what's going on without your glasses (because there's no time to put in the contacts) when you're pretty much blind as a bat. Grrr. Thank goodness it was only endless testing of their brand spanking new fire alarms in every single room in every single apartment. At 8-freaking-30 AM.

It's still going on, forcing me to come to lab to hide out. Damn annoying alarms. Why couldn't they start the tests after I left the apartment at ... well, whenever I felt like it. The sooner everyone gets in sync with my brainwaves and learns to make their worlds revolve around mine, the happier we'll all be. Although ... a couple of those Fire Dept. guys.... heh.
