freaking. carbon monoxide
Feb. 8th, 2026 08:28 pmi was drinking sleepytime tea and reading a lil before bed and my dang carbon monoxide alarm went off :/// so i ended up outside in the cold waiting for the fire crew to show up
their monitors showed that there was indeed a little co in my apartment, but not an active source. possibly it was there b/c i cooked a lot today and/or didn't fully turn the knob off. it was cold outside so i didn't ventilate while cooking. that was probably it. im going to be better about doing that even in the winter when the air im letting in is freezing
they said i was safe but im so rattled by the whole thing! im drinking the rest of my tea and trying to calm down
ugh! and i was about to go to bed on time too!!!
