    We had a carbon monoxide sensor chirping two days ago. We checked every smoke detector before realizing it was coming from the fireplace mantle. It wasn't the batteries so had to get another one.

    Haha, batteries in the junk drawer are notorious for being a century old :D

    Yep second guess is CO detector if you have one. Ours does the reminder chirp too, except it always seems to chose to start when we've been asleep for a couple hours. Freak-out time!

    Being the president of the Forever Alone Club, I usually find Valentine's Day to be a bit annoying, at best. This year, it barely registered on my radar. Until one of my coworkers brought me and the other (female) security guard roses and chocolate covered strawberries. Made my day!

    I think my wife tried to do something special for valentines day. I was too tired after long shifts. After the last few years, not too many holidays mean anything for me. It's just another long shift.

    The weather has been nasty here. Rain turning to a malicious mix of sleet, snow, and frozen rain. Ugh.

    I hate the mixed stuff. Either crap or get of the pot and give someone else a turn. It either needs to warm up and rain, or cool down and snow.

    I'm tired and it's raining and just above freezing (AGAIN) and this house is too quiet and I'm trying not to eat all the Zebra Cakes in my pantry.

    I think I may be up too late when the nightshift thread pops up. Wish I had some zebra cakes though.

    Also, I'm sad, but I guess that's obvious from my above post.

    We had a nice dry day here in California, but far to cold by California standards.

    I only like Oreos sometimes, but anything with whipped cream or similar texture? Gimmee!

    I saw a bowl of milk with a stack of Oreos next to it. The caption was Oreo Baptismal Font. :smile: I'll take the oreos any day.
