OK that....was scary
We just had a fire in my apartment building. It was confined to one unit on the 3rd floor and it's out, but the scary part is that the fire alarm never went off. According to the gossip on my floor, a woman one floor up from me left her apartment to run an errand and left something cooking on the stove. The people below her could smell the smoke coming through the vents and about three people in the building called the fire department. Three firetrucks showed up. I was sitting at home reading when I heard what I thought was a truck in front of the building, but it stayed there and I could hear shouts. I went out on my deck and saw the firetruck and firemen milling about.
I have my cat carrier handy if I need to get out since that's all I would take. Everything here is replaceable. Bea and Simon are not. But I'm very concerned because the alarm never went off on any other floor except the 3rd floor.
*deep breath*
