My apartment building caught on fire earlier today. Lots of damage and my apartment (209) is right beside the one where it happened (208). Made it out immediately and and safe, but scary as fuck. I still don’t have any answers on how much damage there is, or if the building or my stuff will survive.

I might only have the clothes that I’m wearing my wallet, keys, and phone now. I’ll know more tomorrow, but this is kind of a big worry. At least it seems everyone in my building are reported to have survived. community and connection helps a lot in situations like this. May have been much worse.

The update in the article says the building was knocked down an hour ago. I may have lost everything.

Looks like I may be able to go in with attendance in a week or two to recover some things. If salvagable: Laptop, hard drives, accessories, Dad's jacket, sign, inukshuk, eagle, ashes, rosary, photos, vinyls, gems, jewellry, gifts, Mickey glass(es), zippo, table, year books, tax stuff, mugs, razor...

Going in to get whatever I can tomorrow. I still don't know the extent of damage on the inside of my apartment unit, but seeing the ones above and beside mine, could all be pretty charred. I'm kind of curious just to see how it all faired and will try to get pictures of the remains from the inferno.

Things miraculously fared pretty well
