He couldn&#8217;t talk any further about it, but I suspect my neighbors are going to get sued because they left a burning cigarette on their back porch that happened to catch a cardboard box that was holding their ashtray. There was also a propane canister explosion. &#91;&#8230;&#93; It was the explosion that woke James up, but the fire was already filling our apartment with smoke and the fireman ordered him out before he could get the cat. But THE CAT SURVIVED!\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m just glad that everyone is fine. You all know that if you ever need a floor to crash on, my place is always open! Oh, sure, there&#8217;s that little matter of me being 3,000 miles away and all&#8230;but the offer stands anyway. :)<\/p>\n<p>Also, a PayPal donation account has been set up courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/shywickedpixie\/\" title=\"ShyWickedPixie\">ShyWickedPixie<\/a>. As James and Stacy may have just lost everything in their apartment, I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;d appreciate the odd buck or two tossed their way! I only had \\$3 in my account to send off, unfortunately, but it&#8217;s something. :)<\/p>\n<p>(Thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/occipitaldruid\/\" title=\"OccipitalDruid\">OccipitalDruid<\/a> for pointing out the PayPal link!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow &mdash; scary stuff.
