An Usually Quiet Sunday

At this particular apartment complex, most of the tenants are "working professionals".  Therefore, the beast within all comes out during the weekends. But for some reason it was super duper quiet this particular Sunday, despite it being the first NFL Sunday of the season.

Mean Smoker Chick was of course smoking round the clock.  No sign of the guys (I mean older men) that rotates through her apartment.  We've seen probably 4 different male companions at her place...

Someone needs to tell Five O'Clock Cig Boy that he looks like a dork with his baseball cap.

So, most people wear a baseball cap like this right?













Well, Cig Boy wears his cap like this:

Not attractive Cig Boy!!!!  How will you ever score with a girl???

I was surprised to not hear shouting, cheering, and yelling today (being Football Sunday and all).  But I did hear loud Raspy Voice yell "holy shit" when the Packers scored their winning touchdown.

As for Girl with the Boyfriend, she was no where to be seen this weekend.  Maybe she and her bf go to his place on the weekends? OR she really is a dancer and her dance company performs on the weekends?  Who knows.

Happy reading!

Saturday Night Fever

Setting the Scene: About an hour earlier Beach Babe had gone out for dinner and the typical Saturday Night fun. Her roommate, Scrubs, had her mom visiting. And her boyfriend. And her sister. And god knows who else. A wholesome family affair. Crazy Hippy had just hung her laundry out to dry on her balcony - I swear she's never heard of a dryer. The party crew had congregated downstairs, I presume around the beer pong table. That's usually their location of choice.

So here I was, sitting on my couch. (Lights off of course, I couldn't give up my whereabouts to the crew, aka the neighbors). When out popped a mysterious female from Jefe/5 O'Clock Cig Boy's apartment. Much to the enjoyment of the party crew. The cheering, clapping, woo-wooing lasted at least 2 whole minutes. She made a few indecipherable comments (one about small equipment) jumped over the railing on to Mean Smoker Chicks balcony, jumped over the railing on to Crazy Hippy's balcony, then jumped over the railing on to Scrub's balcony. Then she disappeared.

Hmm, I thought. That's interesting. I thought Beach Babe left. And it couldn't have been Scrubs, her boyfriend's here. And her mom. And her sister. And God knows who else. Then out walked 5 O'Clock Cig Boy. Shirtless as usual. He lit his cigarette and leaned over his balcony. Oh man! Beach Babe must be sleeping with 5 O'Clock Cig Boy! Thank god - things are finally starting to get exciting around here. (Yes, I just completely assumed it was beach babe. Who else could it have been?)

Just when I thought I had it figured out, out popped another mysterious (dude this time) from Cig Boy's apartment. He jumped over the railing to Mean Smoker Chick's balcony, jumped over the railing to Crazy Hippy's balcony, and jumped over the railing to Beach Babe's apartment.

?????? Completely stumped now. Is he sleeping with both of them? Where the two mysterious folks sleeping together in 5 O'Clock Cig Boys apartment? Or are they really that boring that there was no sleeping involved at all? But even more importantly...who were the mysterious couple? And why did they disappear in to Scrubs/Beach Babe's apartment is they were both supposed to be gone?

And the games begin...

Character List

Scrubs - She just moved in. So far we have no beef with her. She's in the medical field - best to keep her on our side anyway.

Beach Babe - Scrubs roommate. Yup. That's about it. We know nothing about her. Except that she borrows things and never returns them.

Too Cool for School - Study study study. And spy spy spy.

Crazy Hippy - Too Cool for School's Roommate. Some may think she's a lesbian - but she's not.

Mean Smoker Chick - She smokes like a dog. And she tends to have random men over - a different one each time. Maybe she's mean, maybe she's anti-social, maybe we just intimidate her. Maybe we'll never know.

Missing Roommate - Mean Smoker Chick's roommate. I've seen her once. Seriously.

Five O'Clock Cig Boy - He works like clock work. Cig after work, cig after dinner, cig before bed, and one in between.

Jefe - Five O'Clock Cig Boy's Roommate. He opts for the more "natural" cig. If you get my drift.

Girl with the Boyfriend - She's quiet. She's a dancer? Maybe? Sure. We'll just say she is. Oh, and if you haven't already realized, her boyfriend is over ALL the time.

Third Wheel - Girl with the Boyfriend's roommate. We don't actually know anything about her. We've seen her once. Going for a run after a night of booze.

The Suit - Leaves at 7:40am every day, works on Saturdays, but drinks like a dog. And his friends will hit on anything with tits. Including apes.

The Tool Box -Suit's roommate. He's really not a tool. Or actually, maybe he is. But in a good way. He's nice.

Sorry, I Got High Last Night - Enough said? I think so. He has a thing for plants.

Suspicious Surfer - Sorry, I Got High Last Night's Roommate. He's also known as the apartment watchdog.

Sports Dude - He just moved in. He may live alone, he may not. Only time will tell.

Couch - We don't actually know if he exists. We just assume Sports Dude has a roommate, in which case we figured Couch would be an appropriate name.

On the Road Again - To be determined (Names may change as developments arise.)

Christmas Carol - To be determined (Names may change as developments arise.)

Raspy Voice - My god she's loud. And she gets really dressed up for work. It must take her forever to get ready every morning.

Stringer -Raspy Voice's roommate. He's got great taste in music. Plays the guitar.

Run Man - Not to be confused with Rain Man. Keeps to himself. Likes to run obviously. He's very friendly. But could quite possibly be considered a loner.

Neither Here Nor There - Run Man's roommate. He's never here. Or maybe he is, and he stays in his room. We're not sure.

Vino Extraordinaire 1 - Loves having friends over for wine night. Probably had trouble in school when her teacher asked her to use her "6-inch voice."

Vino Extraordinaire 2 - We really don't know the difference between her and her roommate, Vino Extraordinaire 1. But we do know that they are indeed different people.

Be patient. Character development is coming. Promise.
