I knew eating meat was gonna get me one day.

A few weeks ago, I discovered that the secret of cooking a steak indoors is to get a grill pan really fuckin' hot before you put the steak on. It makes a lot of smoke, though, so you have to disconnect your smoke alarm. What's hard to stop, however, is the smoke wafting out into the hallway so that the building smoke alarm goes off and causes the fire department to have to come out and blow the smoke out of your apartment. Which can, does, and, uh, just did happen.

Live and learn, I guess. The steak was still fantastic, though. :)

I'll sleep much easier knowing that I can leave mine disconnected, because the one in the hall is plenty loud and (obviously) sensitive enough. Sucker-ass landlord.
