Pax Letale

Hello, salutations, etc etc

Looking for a couple of things:
1. A good nail salon
2. A decent bar that isn't completely gross, but maybe just a little too clean is a sign of something else
3. Someplace ranking above Ikea furniture because my coffee table did not survive the trip from the east coast

Also, I'm Alex, new neighbor, etc etc etc you can welcome me with nice vodka I can smell the cheap shit or baked goods brownies are preferable

Private to D4

Surprise?

So uh...hi. I hope I haven't caused too much of a disturbance these past few days. My name is Eleanor Rochester, I just moved in on the second floor. I tried my best to be quiet, but awkward and heavy pieces of furniture made it rather hard sometimes. The delivery men weren't nearly as concerned about being quiet as I was. I'm just about done though, now it's just down to rearranging a few pieces of furniture here and there to get them into their proper spots. Sometimes you can't tell if you've got everything where it needs to be until you look at it a few times, y'know?

So...guess that's all. Just wanted to say sorry for my possible noise. If I disturbed you, I will do my best to make it up to you. I know the traditional exchange between new neighbors is some sort of baked good or whatever, but I think you'd hate me more if I did something like that. I can make you a light up snowman instead? It's a bit more permanent than cookies, but it's much easier on your stomach. Unless you try to eat it. Hopefully no one will do that though.

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.

What an odd way to make one's presence known. You begin, I suppose, with the basics. My name is Alexander Dahlin. You may have read some of my work already. Inane novels, mostly, of no use to anyone. People are just throwing money around these days; write a book, make a million. Own a pretty face, you're a movie star. Strange world. And this? Well, I've certainly never lived in a building like this, and with such a ridiculously strange grand, useful form of communication. No doubt it will prove to be a pain in my ass wonderful way to get to know each and every one of you. Given my profession, I've quite an extensive personal library. Do feel free to contact me at any point if you're interested in perusing it. I only ask that you return whatever you borrow in the pristine condition it was left to you. It's only polite, after all, and friendships are based on mutual trust. Or so I've heard.

Having only moved in this weekend, I'm still getting used to the lay of the land. Does anyone know of a good tailor? Highly underutilized commodity in this day and age. Gentleman really should pay more attention to the little details in life.

Due to my nocturnal habits, please avoid knocking on my door during what would be considered normal hours. I enjoy the night and sleep through the mornings. An interruption to my sleep can be overlooked, however, if you bear gifts of alcohol or delectable thighs. Lastly, please, for the love of all that is holy, only refer to be as Alexander (or Mr. Dahlin, if you're the formal sort). I simply cannot stomach responding to Alex or any version of an obnoxious nickname.

Happy holidays, though they have passed us by already.

( Dearest Juliet, I hope this will be a nice gift to welcome you home. I do hope to see you soon. Remember, shall you need anything, I'm right next door. )

I was told about this online forum and that I should introduce myself to get to know everyone in the building. I'll be brief. My name is Iris and I just moved into apartment 902. I have degrees in animal science and a PhD biology, but what I really studied closely was reptiles. When I heard the Santa Ana Zoo wanted to build a reptile exhibit, I jumped at the chance, and have been working for over a year on the exhibit. Now that it's finally close to being finished and I have more normal hours, I figured I had time to move into an apartment. With me comes my Red Tailed Boa Constrictor (don't worry, she stays inside the apartment). This isn't her, but looks like her

Hello everyone in this absolutely lovely building - I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Juliet Blackwater, and I've taken up residence on the eighth floor. Um, I work at Balboa Public Library and I'm a Lit major at UCLA. Is anyone else in the building a student? Otherwise, I suppose if you need a book recommendation, I'd be good to ask. Thanks for having me? How awkward is this...
