I finally realized that the floorboards of the hallway just between my bedroom and kitchen is making a lot, and I mean a lot, of noise. I kind of thought those creaks were beats coming from my satellite radio, which I cast on to the big TV in the dining room. But I realized that I heard them when I was walking from my bedroom to my kitchen. I then started pressing down on those floorboards, and they were creaking like mad. Now that I actually "hear" them, it's kind of scary what is going on now: I walk, just normal, over those floorboards, they make a slight by audible "creak" -- and after that I hear one or two loud ... well, let's just say knocks, and they are pretty loud. I don't exactly know what's going on, but I suspect something there is giving way.
It's a hell of a thing to tell my parents when they come back, but I think I have to tell them. Maybe it's been this bad for a long time and we just didn't realize it, but now that I have focused on it, it's something I have to raise with my folks.
