Pax Letale

Brilliant!

Hi everyone - it's taken me a few days to settle in, but I think the apartment is finally starting to take shape.

I know some of you, and I look forward to meeting the rest of you as soon as your able.

For the record, I'm Lia, I've just moved in, and I'm a little in love with the space.

So what's everyone up to this weekend? Anything happening in Anaheim, or are you going somewhere more exotic?

Good Day my dear fellows ,

I've been expecting a package. It was delivered today while I was out but I am not sure who was kind enough to sign for it. This package contains something of great value to me and probably only to me. I would appreciate if you could contact me in P3 so that I may arrange a time when I can pick up this item. If I am not in, please feel free to leave a note.

My best regards and deepest gratitude,
Honey Skye Griffin

(If someone decided to be the signee, and wishes to open the package let me know! And I will tell you what the contents are)

Thanks to everybody that came to my fight yesterday! I hope you all had a lot of fun! The fact that you came out like that means a lot to me. Thanks for the support, and I hope to see all of you guys a lot more now that my two weeks of pre-fight hell are over!

On a completely unrelated note that has nothing to do with the outcome of that fight whatsoever, who would be up for either going out or throwing some sort of party here tonight or tomorrow night?

Okay. You know how I said we needed to have a barbecue? And then didn't have it? I got my schedule so we're doing it this week. Saturday. Starts at 7, ends whenever the fuck we all get off the beach. The next Sunday is the 4th so we'll be beating all the douchebags to the good spots and if you want to bring fireworks, be my goddamn guest. If everybody is going to be missing that weekend to go home and do family shit I GUESS we can fix a new date. Otherwise this is how I'm celebrating the 4th. And also not working.

Hey, person who said they'd bring the food. You still up for that? And person who said you'd cook only if I was NICE and SMILED, you still gonna cook if I play nice?

I should have gotten around to this earlier but I've been holed up in my new place trying to get everything unpacked, wired, whatever. But hey, I'm Paul and I just moved into the building. I'm in 1005 if you want to stop by with any welcoming sort of delicious baked goods. I'm not allergic to anything (that I know of) so I don't discriminate between sugary things. In return, I promise to find the best wine to go with whatever you bring. I also cook a lot, I'm just not that good at baking. Never really had a knack for it. But I make my own pasta, so hey?

Um. This is awkward. I used to actually be personable, I swear. And don't worry - I'm not going to be blasting any loud music or anything. Nor do I run a meth lab from the spare room. Although that probably may disappoint some. But I believe in common courtesy, so I will always extend such to my fellow neighbors.

Okay, I didn't get a chance to do this yesterday, so I'm Chris. I like loud movies, loud music, and not being woken up early on my very fucking rare days off, so if you've got a problem with any of that, buy earplugs and don't drop shit on my ceiling.

okay now what the fuck else do i say OH YEAH The rusted silver piece of shit Civic out in the parking lot? Mine. Scratch it, dent it, shove it into the street, whatever, and I run you over. Got it? Good.

[After several men begin work in #103, tearing out the carpet and replacing it with hardwood, putting in new cupboards and setting up to replace countertops and some similar bathroom upgrades. They play Top 40 hits pretty loudly, and along with the sound of buzz saws and male conversation, stray notes escape out of the windows out in every direction.]

Sorry about the ruckus.

Thanks, these are really great.

Hello! Well, isn’t this clever. I’ve never heard of other places having a building-wide forum – now you can technically meet people twice, or just once if you opt for one or the other. I don’t mind either way, personally; if you don’t want to meet me in person, I won’t be offended, but if you do then that’s fine too.

I suppose I should introduce myself. I’m Sarah in 207, and I’m still in the process of dragging boxes up, so please excuse the possible mess in the second-floor hallway. By the way, does anyone know of any places to buy plants around here? I’m afraid mine didn’t cope too well with travelling. They don't cope too well with much of anything, actually... not anymore

Hi, everybody! Why is talking to people on the internet more intimidating than talking to them in real life? I'm Riley Hollow and I just got here. If you hear a lot of noise on the third floor, don't worry. The building isn't coming down. I'm just trying to rearrange my furniture, and it's being really stubborn.

Oh, that reminds me! Does anybody know what the policy is about putting in fixtures here? Because I have this great hanging punching bag that I'd love to install in my place, but it would need to be bolted in and I don't know if that's considered to be some kind of vandalism or not. If I have to I'll get one of the standing kind, but they don't move the right way.

Anyway, if anybody needs any help moving in - I've seen so many cars and trucks outside, it's crazy - just give me a shout out in 303! I'm happy to help out my new neighbors. :)

might as well make some attempt to be social

It's a new day.

My name's Roy. I, like everyone else, obviously, am a new resident in this freshly finished building.

Buildings like this one, that get remodeled and then opened to the public, make me wonder about the people living in them. Do they come for the history, or the clean surfaces over the history?

Something to think about.
