Hi everyone, apparently this is the place to make yourself known to your neighbours. I'm Jenny and some of you may have noticed me moving in last night, sorry about that.

My removal guy had to be rushed to hospital yesterday afternoon so I didn't end up driving down until 11. Not that any of you really needed all that detail. Anyway, I'm originally from Scotland, but I've lived for the past year in Costa Mesa where I still work at their renaissance centre. I suppose I should also let you all know that I have a dog but I promise he won't make any noise. He's not barked at a single human being for the all of the time I've had him.

If I did wake anyone up I'd love to make it up to you with a cup of tea? Just drop me a line, I'll be in all weekend attempting to unpack all of these boxes.

Ah, another late night arrival! We are a lonely bunch, forever apologizing to our fellows with offerings of sustenance. Nice touch with the tea, by the way. I went for pizza and beer myself.

I'm Richard, and I live just down the hall from you. All I can say is that I must have been Incredibly tired last night, because I didn't hear a thing. Let me know if you need help unpacking. We late-nighters have to stick together.

Late? ~~A wizard is never late!~~ I didn't realise there was an allotted time, sorry. I'm usually much more punctual. And tea is good but pizza and beer might have been a little more tempting.

It's nice to meet you Richard and I could always use help unpacking. I had next to nothing when I came over to the US and now I've got hundreds of boxes of stuff. I have no idea where it all came from.

Some people seem to claim that moving should be done "before you wake up the whole building". I've never believed it myself, as our fellow tenants can attest, but it's a popular position.

The beer and pizza wasn't as effective as I had hoped it was, actually. Let me know if you get better results with the tea. If we gather enough information, we could learn the perfect food combination to rule this place.

It's nice to meet you too, Jennifer. Let me know if there's a good time to show up and help fight off the boxes. I have a theory that stuff breeds when we're not looking, like well-fed Gremlins after midnight. I'm happy to offer backup.

Clearly people just need to stay up a little later, then it'd be almost impossible to wake them all up, considering they wouldn't be asleep.

I like your thinking, my friend. I'll start a tally of how many people I can get to help me unpack with the promise of tea. Though I think we can both agree that food is the way to pretty much anybody's heart.

Any time this weekend would be good, I'm off to work again on Monday and as much as I would love to leave people I've just met working unpacking in my flat, I'm not sure my dog would agree with me.

Obviously. I'm surprised they haven't caught on yet. I, myself, keep in the healthy habit of never sleeping. ~~It also keeps me from having nightmares.~~

Food and music, in my experience. The one two combo of home made bread and Waylon Jennings have won more hearts than I care to recall.

Hey, dogs love me! I'd be more worried about unpacking things incorrectly. The toilet paper goes in the kitchen cabinets, right?

	Now, there's staying up late and then there's just not sleeping. I can't understand that, it's one of my favourite things to do. You may be on to a winner with that one, if you added live music you'd probably have everyone eating out of your hands. Sure. To be honest, I don't have much of a system, so long as I know where things are so I can get at them. (Reply to this) (Parent)
