We smelled gas in our house, so now the fire department is here in full gear with masks and oxygen, and they’re clearing the house.

They smell it too, so at least I don’t feel like I’m crazy. Much excitement!

@grammargirl Glad you caught it and no harm was done! Imagine if you had been gone for a few days--yikes! Gas is dangerous stuff. Once when I was working in a cable vault with a blow torch, blue flames started burning around the conduit that was protruding from the ground. I called the gas company and they ended up evacuating the entire neighborhood!

@grammargirl Our gas company in Los Angeles tells us to contact them. Great to know that the fire department takes to those calls.

@vpermar Yeah, I looked at the PG&E website, and it said to call 911, which seemed kind of dramatic to me. On the other hand, I had a cousin whose house exploded many years ago, so I am inclined not to take chances.
