I'm up, I'm up. What a wacko night. I wrote the notes early, scheduled them, changed the topic and was in bed by 11:45. I think I finally fell asleep around twelve-thirty. At three I was awakened by two loud electronic beeps. Now, what two loud electronic beeps usually signifies in the home environment is that a zone has been breached or opened, i.e. a door or window. I was up like a shot (probably not the smartest thing) and checked the alarm panel, but it seemed regular to me and didn't say anything like Zone 1, which I thought it would. So, back to bed I went and about ten minutes later I heard it again. This time I got a little fear in me and I stayed put, listened for intruders, heard nothing, but obviously couldn't fall asleep. I finally got up about a half hour later. Again I checked the alarm panel and noticed an asterisk next to the date - so I checked the doors and all was well - then it came to me what it probably was and I went to the guest bathroom and lo and behold and also behold and lo one of the guests yesterday had opened one of the windows therein and left it open without mentioning it. I rarely go in there. In fact, it happened at the Thursday rehearsal, but that one I did see and close. So, I closed it and went back to bed with no further incident of beeping. The question is, why wasn't it beeping repeatedly, why only twice, and why didn't it say Zone whatever instead of an asterisk? I may call the alarm company and ask. So, all in all I suppose I got seven or eight hours of sleep.
