What was that? TWICE NOW.
Idiotically recording this just in case.
10:20PM BAM BAM BAM
Sounded just like a knock on the door. Got up fast, got dressed, turned on porch light, nothing. Opened door, looked around, nothing. Neighbor across the street turned on porch light just after that; maybe responding to my unusual light, maybe responding to same noise?
Looked around the house, nothing broken or fallen. No wind tonight. No indication of earthquakes. Checked SpokaneNews facebook, nobody reporting crashes or breakins.
I've learned through the years that a single noise causing wakeup from deep sleep often 'registers' as three noises. Apparently passing through stages in the auditory system that are normally inhibited.
Probably never know. Might have been a random knock, might have been house thermal clunk, might have been the stupid Chineseshit refrigerator which occasionally issues an unbelievably loud BANG as part of its defrosting action.

SEPTEMBER 9. SAME FUCKING THING, SAME EXACT TIME.
10:20PM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM
This time five knocks instead of three, though as abovementioned knocks that cause waking are hard to count. Again I turned on the porch light and saw nothing, again the neighbor across the street had their light on as well.
