What's that alarm!
As Carla performs her daily morning smoke detector test, it causes me to count the number of alarms we have on C-Time. There's the smoke detector, carbon monoxide monitor, high engine temperature, low engine oil pressure, bilge alarm, anchor drag alarm on two chartplotters, shallow water alarm, low fuel alert, and full holding tank warning. If we run aground, catch on fire, burn up the engine, sink, run out of fuel, or overflow our holding tanks, it will be our own fault, as we will have had plenty of warning. Oh, and Carla's smoke detector test, that's just her cooking on the gas stove. Apparently the smoke detector is extremely sensitive to charred or toasted food.

Hilarious! And what about your wake-up alarm? Has that been internalized?
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid it is still stuck at about 6:30 a.m. - which is fine with me.
