So i got pretty lucky tonight. While lying in bed reading, i heard a shrill sound comming through the walls. I thought it might be some of my electronic equipment making noise, so i got up to check it out. Nothing. I barley had time to throw a pair of pants on when there was some frantic knocking on my front door. I opened the door to find my upstairs neighbor's two young girls (ages 6 and 10) screaming that their apartment was on fire. I grabbed my fire extinguisher and flashlight and ran outside (29 degrees outside) in only a pair of jeans. I ran up the stairs and couldnt see anything but thick black smoke bellowing out of the open door. I ran inside and found the girls mom crawling around in the back of the apartment unable to find her way out. I was able to get her outside, and saw that the kitchen was on fire due to a grease fire on the stove. I was able to use my fire extinguisher and hers to put it out. About 5 minutes later the fire department showed up. After explaining what had happened, they entered the apartment and came right back out saying that everything was taken care of. All i could do was joke by saying "See, the cop can put out fires too, Can yall fight crime?" To which all i got was mean stares. HAHA Everyone was fine, minus a little smoke inhalation by me and the mom, and no serious damage occurred. (Thank god, all my stuff was just a few feet below the fire). I just wish my lungs would quit burning.
