Fucking hallelujah— I ain’t dead’ neither is Seneca nor Cindy!
Don’t use an old school gas heater — you can fucking die carbon monoxide poisoning in your sleep!!!
Death regrets?
Fucking crazy, this morning at 3:30 AM, I was always suspicious of the old-school furnace gasoline gas natural gas house heater, but in order to save money Cindy and I turned on the pilot light last night, tested it, thought it worked OK, and then proceeded to light it. It seemed like it worked OK. But this morning at 3:30 AM, I turned on the gas heater to warm up the house, took a quick shower, and during my shower, the carbon monoxide poisoning alarm goes off!
Fortunately about a month ago, Cindy and I did the due diligence of replacing the battery for the carbon monoxide sensor. As a consequence it probably saved our life.
a potential alternate future:
Imagine if, we did not change the carbon monoxide heater smell detector thing, and I just let the gas run, in the middle of the night, or during the morning and I just left. I just went out for a walk, came back to find that Cindy and Seneca, Seneca at age 3, Cindy, both died in the sleep due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
