You Know It's a Bad Day What The House Turns Against You

So, in my house I have a smoke alarm system that it wired through the house. Meaning that if one goes off, that all go off. I have one placed in a small hallway right outside the kitchen that is rather sensitive. And by sensitive I mean caramelizing any kind a meat will send the house into a frenzy. And don't even start me on what happens if I try to fry bacon.

This past weekend, however, has hit a new low. I was boiling water. It was three large pots for corn, eggs, & potatoes ... but still. My house is now completely against me cooking.

I was so confused. Everyone was confused. Where's the fire?


I'm pretty sure the neighbors have pretty much convinced themselves that they're never coming over to eat unless it's take out.



But then it got worse ...

My husband was taking a long hot shower ... and steam filled into our room.

Then the house went basaltic.

I think it's trying to tell me it doesn't like steam.
