Things that go *bump* in the night

So, yea, I think I'm nocturnal now...
Last week, my smoke detector started beeping due to a low battery warning. And by beeping, I mean it sounded like someone beating to metal pipes together right next to my ear every thirty seconds.
Now, I would have replaced the 9V battery myself if it weren't for 3 things:
1) I had faith in my apartment complex's maintenance staff.
2) When I pulled down the smoke detector from the mount, I saw it was plugged into the ceiling, so I thought it didn't have a backup 9V in it.
3) I didn't have any 9V batteries myself, or any time or money to get some.
So, yea, after being unable to sleep for 2 days, I now can't go to sleep before 8 AM.
