All day long, there’s been a high pitch chirping in my house. Chirp. Chirp. Chirp.
It is surely a smoke detector – since I tested the carbon monoxide detector and it is a) fully functional and b) not the culprit of the constant chirping – however, there are so many smoke detectors in this house (all about safety), I can’t seem to tell which one it is.
I stand under one and suddenly the chirping is silent – unwilling to either confirm or deny its role as the source of the noise.
And so I sit on the couch.
Chirp. Chirp. Chirp. It feels like it’s right next to me, the noise, but it’s not.
And it could well drive me crazy. Waiting for the moment when it happens to chirp at a moment when I’m in the room – that will end this, this constant annoyance I’ve felt all day being unable to detect and stop the noise.
