Question:

Useless smoke alarm keeps beeping?

Well, it started two months after we moved in to our new rented home. We had two smoke alarms and a carbon monoxide detector, one of the smoke alarms newer than the other. We still kept the old one lying around anyway, but it wasn't until this month did it start beeping shrilly. We tested the rest of the alarms with both still working, but that other one..jeez! Sometimes it will time itself every 5 minutes, one shrill ear-drum-shattering beep at a time, other times the time gap between the beeps is longer, while other times it is more frantic. We checked everywhere for smoke and found nothing amiss. We rarely use electricity from the plugs, we just recharge our phones and laptops and turn it off, we always check our oven and stove, and the other alarms hadn't given sign yet of impending doom. What the hell is this retarded smoke alarm doing then?

Answer:

It's never too early. Google what to pack for labor and that'll give you plenty of lists and ideas. I will tell you that not packing anything is not the end of the world. I had my son and didn't ahve anything packed. The hospital will accommodate you with everything you'll need.
I'd say no. I'm 22, but when I was 12 I started piercing myself. It was dumb and I still can't believe I did that to myself. You might think you know what you're doing but you don't. Also, I'll mention it is incredibly painful. I have a few piercings and I've found that just going to a professional is the best way to go about it. It's quick and painless. I used google too when I would look up how to pierce myself. But since you probably won't take anyone's advice I'd say order or get a proper needle or piercing kit. It'll make things a lot safer. if you use a safety pin or sewing needle it will not fit a septum ring in there. The gauge would be completely off.
Yes, James Spader. It was embarrassing. I had to tell him I was on fire because I tried to light a match with my pants. Don't know if he bought it.
