Wooooooooooooooooooooo…….
1:20 in the morning and a weird noise is coming from….where?
I think it’s coming from the neighbor’s house. Possibly their air-conditioning? (Yes, in Phoenix you DO need to run your AC well into September…)
* Trudge outside. Explore around the yard.
* It ain’t my pool
* It ain’t my air-conditioner
Not much else on my property that could be making a weird noise.
That doesn’t PROVE it’s not coming from somewhere around my house or yard. It’s the freakin’ middle of the night…pitch dark…I can’t see much out there…I’m dead tired…
Awww jeez! Whatever it is, it’s getting LOUDER. But…better yet, I can hardly hear it when I go outdoors, but inside: it’s resonating through the bedroom window.
No, it’s not the bedroom ceiling fan.
WTF?
Welp: forget getting any more sleep tonight.
If I’m right that it’s coming from outside, then it’s likely to be an expensive fix…unless, with any luck at all, it’s coming from the neighbor’s house.
Uh oh…. The AC unit just clicked off, so commanded by the thermostat. Hmmmm…. And guess what? No woooooooooooo.
Yeah. That suggests, o’course, that it IS coming from my place. That it’s probably emanating from the air-conditioning unit. And that my bank account is about to be cleaned out.
Ohhhhhh goodie!
****
Waitaminit… NOPE! The wooooo is back, but my AC is still off. A miracle! The noise, whatever it is, is NOT coming from my gear.
Apparently it’s coming from the neighbor’s house, or from some damfool thing off in the distance.
Hmmm… Pray for the best, then. For me, that is…not for whatever poor wretch owns the freshly busted machinery.
Phoenix: garden spot!
