oh gosh.

last night everything happened. this is not an april fools joke. all of this is real. buckle up.

peter moved out (!!!) what an amazing turn of events. he did knock on my door 14 times in the process, but that was well worth knowing he is gone. although he just moved down the street so we will see what happens.

i had just put some soup on the stove and then someone knocked on my door again and i almost didn't answer because i was so tired of talking to peter and then it was some other dude from upstairs who said there was smoke upstairs and i should leave the building.

long story short, they got home, their apartment was full of smoke, so they shut the door and called 911. then they went to knock on everyone's doors to tell them to get out of the building, and the door to the apartment directly underneath them was hot to the touch. so we all figured that was where the fire was.

long story short, 7 firetrucks came, it was a real emergency, they shut the street down, ran upstairs with their hoses, axed the windows out in a few apartments, and hosed everywhere.

2 and a half hours later, they finally let us back into our apartments, but there is water and soot everywhere and this is just a really weird thing to happen. they wouldn't tell us how the fire started because there is an "ongoing investigation". buttt i'm feeling like either way now is a good time to invest in renter's insurance.

now i'm sick and i have a fever and i feel horrible. butttt at least peter is gone.

this isn't the best picture buttt you can see how the whole ceiling is gone in the apartment with the fire.

i really wanted to take more pictures but we weren't allowed too close to the building and i felt like a jerk getting in the way of firefighters putting out real fires.





bye bye bye
