embarrassment is the price of vigilance

It turns out that when the fire department sends someone out to check out your carbon monoxide levels after one of your alarms goes off, they do so with the truck, the flashing lights, the siren, the six guys in firefighting gear, etc.

Man, if Juniper was just a little older she would have been thrilled.

(It was a malfunction related to a battery problem. We have no CO at this time.)

or terrified. I was extremely scared of big men in uniforms and loud noises when I was in preschool. (I still hate loud noises)

I'm glad you don't have a CO problem. They probably sent the whole crew because a) that's what they do, and b) CO levels could mean something's smoldering somewhere.

I'm glad it was just a battery thing. Carbon Monoxide is scary. So is there a special number to call when the alarm goes?
