[it's a voice post! whoo hoo for Menthe, figuring it out. In any case, in the background the clacking of pots moving around, plus general stove-y, kitcheny sounds can be heard, water running, utensils hitting, etc.]

Y'know I don't really like being in here all the time but at least it's better then out there. Cars are nasty things. [she sniffs, and there's a deliberate banging of a pot on the stove]

So I'm working! Here! Except when I really have to leave. I decided to start cooking more. Take out food makes you all greasy and stuff especially when you're not moving around and stuff. So there's pasta and stuff now. And alot of chocolate, hot chocolate is great you know.

[she sneezes suddenly sniffing again]

Ugh. Ew. Yuck. That's not good, I don't care what it says I don't think pepper is what's supposed to be in this anyway. Eww. Who wants to sneeze when eating?

[a huge heaving sigh and the plop! of pot of soup being dumped in the sink. Silly girl.]

What was I saying? Oh yeah. Hot chocolate! It's great. Even if it's hot outside, but you know sometimes heat is good you know? Like, I can think of alot of hot things which I like.

[there's a good three minutes of full on giggles here, and one has to wonder if she's drunk or not. Nah, it's cabin fever. However, there is the sound of something whistling - almost frothing on the stove, as well as the disticint sound of water boiling over and hitting the hot stove]

OH SHOOT! SHITTY SHITTY SHOOT AH IT'S BURNING!

[transmission ends as she goes to take care of her burnt water.]

i hate this hate it hate it hate it hate it

where is everyone i havent found anyone this is horrible and i took some candy from the room i was in last thx

I am never going outside again.

It's been a very long time since this has happened....I feel like a plant again. I need to change my clothes are sticking to me - why  do we have to wear these things around here? This is just annoying.

Hephaestus, I might be late for work tomorrow. Didn't have time to leave a note, but I'm sure this isn't too inconvenient, right?~♥

Isn't it just wonderful when old friends show up~?

[Filter: Hephaestus]

We need to talk. About things other than showing up late, I just had to explain it there just in case people were wondering~

I do think the rainy days are the only good thing about being overground, rather than Underground. Concerning the weather. It's always too hot in the summer, or too cold in the winter, and I can't keep how many layers of clothes I'm supposed to wear as a mortal straight. It was so much easier back then they weren't neccessary.

We should just make the apartment complex part of old times.

...there was a reason why I made this post. I KNOW THERE WAS. Hmm...Oh! Does anyone here know how to get cheap tickets? I've not paid much attention to Broadway until recently~

I still love my job. I'm just getting...distracted way too much.

[Filtered: Girls of the Complex]
In light of recent...observations, I've decided:

WE SHOULD HAVE A SLEEPOVER. All the girls in the complex, especially those who don't get out much. It'll be fun. We can have a slumber party, and watch movies, and order pizza and have popcorn, and all that fun stuff. And definitely in PJs. Nothing else allowed unless you want to show up naked which I think would be just fine

Of course there's rules! Once we decide when and where:

1. No weapons! That means no knives either, or if you have powers that could turn people into other objects, you can't come or bring them.

2. Girls only! Who needs dicks anyway?

3. ...no trashing the hostess' apartment.

4. If you normally don't get out of your apartment NOW IS THE TIME TO DO SO.

So who's in?

Because I just realized I never put one up for her >>

I have a new job! No more burgers, I never ever ever want to see one again. Or eat one, or smell one – not even a veggie burger, I’m done.Besides the pay is better for a variety of reasons

My new employer is a wonderful man, and we get alone just splendidly. And um, I’m not posting this from my computer at work at all. I just couldn’t…restrain myself? Hope it’s not any trouble! ♥

Even though I swear if I hear Put a smile on one more time, I’ll go and smash those speakers myself – they finally promoted me. Instead of flipping burgers, I’m the person yelling at everyone else to flip burgers. I’m not that girl anymore. Ha!

You keep telling me you want me
Hold me close all through the night
I know that deep inside you need me
No one else can make it right
Don't you try to hide the secret
I can see it in your eyes
You said the words without speaking
Now I'm gonna make you mine!

Give me just one night, una noche!
A moment to be by your side
Give me just one night, una noche!
I'll give you the time of your life!

Filter's are your friends, folks.

Might as well make this simple since I would have said it sooner or later: I think most of you are rather pathetic, and Hades you're getting on my nerves not even greeting me when I came here.

That being said, I now have two sinks broken. I'm not exactly........Oh fine, I got a colander stuck on the faucet and pulled so now it's broken. and water is spurting everywhere now and my bathroom is now unusable.

This is a call for help.

I. Will. Not. Panic. Will. Not. Panic. Will. Not...

AGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH I'M GOING TO KILL YOU CRONUS FOR GIVING ME THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mortals are so silly. I'm sure you've all heard of the economy? And how its falling, no jobs to be had, housing is in a crisis, and all that silly stuff? You probably even experienced it those of you who work instead of laze about.

The Real Estate Agency I work at is floundering. We only make money if things are sold and though everyone and their neighbor wants to be on the market. No one's buying though unless it's ridiculously cheap.

So why are we holding a huge party for our clients to 'reassure' them all is well? All employees are to attend, with or without their plus one, dressed to the occasion and ready to mingle.

It makes little sense to me but at least I'll be delightfully away from you all for the evening.

[Filtered AWAY from Boys and Persephone]

Does anyone know what you're supposed to wear to a semi-formal event? When you're going to jump the client who lost half his home (and his face) in a fire, and he has no insurance? It's his last ditch attempt before foreclosure, but I know he's not going to make it. I think he might need a bit of cheering up if you know what I mean.

And no, I can't show up in anything from home. I may get fired for that - there's the chance disgusting kids may be in attendence.

Let's get to the point.

I'd like a roll call of all men, currently not tied down, or if they are so - need to be rescued. And they say it themselves so their wives don't come after me with a gun.

I'm not too picky, I just want a head count.

I've been a bit behind, but I don't think I've ever been so happy as to be in my bed again. Safe. Even if it is empty....moving on, what excuses have people been using for work?

My boss is very nice, and told me to take my time over my last break-up. She's quite sympathetic, unlike others, to wounds that stay on despite the years...

Maia, thank you again for your kindness in taking me in those last couple of days.

...did the rescue mission already come and go?

There's some of us still trapped...here, in the lobby - please, please, they don't seem to realize we're here BUT I DON'T WANT TO DIE OR BECOME SOMETHING ELSE AGAIN. SOMEBODY HELP US OUT OF HERE!!!!

I ventured out into the city today to get a map, and a few other neccessities. In case you're not aware, don't trust those friendly vendors on the street. They think a discount translates to...roaming hands. Luckily, I was able to take care of those grimy fingers easily. I love those fashion accesories of this world, purses. So useful...and gorgeous!

Though someone would have cared that I was in danger...someone who cares for me very deeply...

Well, even if memories are askew it's just wonderful to be here with all of you, especially some of you. Since returning to...supposedly 'normal' form, I've gotten things set up, this thing called a job, decorating and the like.

I do wish I had a better understanding of this new world, and the way things work...wouldn't someone be willing to give me a little 'tour'? Even just taking me to dinner would be delightful, I'd simply enjoy the company of those whom I've....missed.
