Ok, so I'm just going to say this and then I'm going to bed, but if you don't hear from me tomorrow, someone call 911.
I just went down to turn all the lights out for bed and I realized that the pilot light on my gas fireplace is out. I checked to see if I'd turned it off, but nope; it's still set on high. The further back I think, the more I realize that it's been out all day, since just after the boys got home.
I swear to god we're all going down in a blaze of glory tonight.
Of course it's Josh's late night at work and he won't be home until after 1 and the biggest big-wig of all his big-wigs is at his place of work right now so I can't even call him to ask him what to do and the house doesn't smell like gas but I am groggy tired the same way I was the last time we had a carbon monoxide problem and I am freaking the fuck out.
Tell me it's ok. Please.

It's all okay.
There was that good?
I'm sure you'd be able to smell the gas.
It'll be fine :)
Are you alive.....?
We LIVED! I am fairly certain I deserved to be smited for the Bon Jovi reference, though.
LOL! Good thing is that the "smell" of the natual gas, is not real, they add the smell so if there is a leak... so you can well... smell it!
