"The sound is doing something to my eye. Feels like it's melting my brain."

At around 8 pm last night, I heard a weird beeping noise. It didn't beep very often at first, but over time, it started beeping more regularly. I checked my smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, but they were fine. I went downstairs to check the ones in the hallway. Fine. I listen at the door of the 2nd floor apartment. A ha! No big, I think. He'll come home and fix it.

He never came home.

He's still not home.

It's still beeping.

Now it's beeping three times, silent for one second, three more times, silence, three, silence, three. Etc.

*beep* *beep* *beep*

*beep* *beep* *beep*

*beep* *beep* *beep*

It's driving me mad. It's just loud enough that the tv won't drown it out. It's at the front of the house, so if I'm in the bedroom with the door shut, it's much better. However, since I have a cat with some kind of aversion to closed doors, I get this:

*beep* *beep* *beep*

*meeeeeeeeeeeoooooooowwwwwww*

*beep* *beep* *beep*

*meeeeeeeeeeeoooooooowwwwwww!*

*beep* *beep* *beep*

*MEEEEOOOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!*

ACK.
