Waiting for the adrenaline to wear off so I can go back to sleep. I went to bed a few hours ago, and had been dozing on and off. Chris came in and said he was going to get in the shower. A few minutes later, I'm just about to doze off again and I hear REALLY LOUD STATIC and smell burning electronics. I yell for Chris, but of course he can't hear me, he's in the shower. So I get up and try to track down source of sound and smell. Sound has stopped, but smell hasn't, but I don't see anything...
So I go get Chris out of the shower, and we tracked it to the central unit of our home theater system.
The darn thing is 7+ years old, which for electronics these days has got to be something like 180, right? Well apparently it decided to fry its internals. Just glad it happened while we were home to unplug it...but now I am too amped to go back to sleep.
