I'm shaking. My heart is still pounding and my ears are ringing and. Ohmygod.

About a half hour ago or so, I was watching Buffy: The Vampire Slayer on Netflix and I heard this sort of high-pitched, beeping noise. I thought it was my headphones or the computer or something, so I ignored it for about forty-five seconds before I took out my headphones.

It was the fire alarm.

Yeah.

I jumped out of bed and ran into the living room to hear my mother saying "Is it outside too?" My dad opened the door. "Yeah, it's outside, too." My first thought? Oh my god, we're trapped in our apartment with a fire raging outside. Second thought? Okay, we're putting on shoes, we're going to try to get out. Oh god, the cats.

At this point I'm near hyperventilating and praying desperately, over and over again "Oh, God, save us, keep us safe, oh God, oh God, oh God..."

Turns out there wasn't actually a fire outside the apartment. IDEFK if there was one in the apartment building or if it was malfunctioning equipment or some punk-ass idiot who decided to pull the fire alarm at 1:14 in the morning or what.

I'm just... thoroughly freaked out. I'm kind of crashing from the adrenaline rush but I. God. I was seriously scared for my life tonight. I'd forgotten what that kind of panic feels like and. Nnngh. I'm not making any sense, but I am just. Freaked out beyond belief.

Alright, my CSS-savvy friends. I'm working on a little, basic CSS override for Flexible Squares for when I move journals. Only I can't get rid of the little strip of background color between the header, entry stuff and footer. (you can see what I've got so far here. Colorscheme and stuff is subject to change.)

Anyone know anything that can help?

I get to drive eight hours tomorrow with my dad in a rental car so I can be around for makinhistory's graduation. I'm psyched about seeing her and Hannah and Haley, but I am not-so-psyched about the car ride tomorrow and Monday. :|

WHICH IS TO SAY I'm not going to be around much this weekend.

Pick a character I play from my muselist or otherwise. I will give you 3 pieces of my headcanon for this character and why I came up with them.
