The Virtuality sisters
Virtuella and Pixeline
Virtuality are sisters, they have both been out of jobs for a
long time, but when Virtuella got a job in Sim City they decided
to both move there, and see if Pixeline could also get a job.
Unfortunately Sim City is in need of homes for all the new
workers that are coming, the mayer has started to look for an
achirect company to build some new apartments, but the work has
still not started :(
So when Virtuella and Pixeline heard of an empty factory building
that was for sale cheap, because the owner had run off with all
the company money, they imediately bought it, because they really
needed somewhere to live.
Today they are arriving at their new home, the guy who has been looking after it for the bank meets them there with the keys. | |
They are very eager to have a look at it all, so they walk inside to the hall. | |
Inside they find the actual factory, looks like they produced garden gnomes here.... | |
...and
lots of them. What a large room, this really has possibilities. |
|
Hmm, wonder what they made back here ? | |
Virtuella finds the locker room for the employes, at least there are showers and toilets here she thinks. | |
Then Virtuella has to go to work, leaving Pixeline by herself. | |
Pixeline has found another bathroom, apparantly this is the office staffs private bathroom. | |
And ofcourse the toilet clogs up :( | |
She has to call someone to fix it, but where is the phone ? | |
Ofcourse there are phones in the office :) | |
Upstairs Pixeline finds another large production hall. They must really have made a lot of gnomes here when it was still active ! | |
Pixeline finds the old lunch room, complete with fridge, sink and microwave oven, and a coffee machine. | |
The lunch room even has a pay phone :) | |
The lunch room also has a door to the narrow balcone on the front, and there Pixeline finds a rocket launcher :) | |
She just HAS to try it out, it looks like so much fun :) | |
Then one of the neighbours stops by, and Pixeline goes to greet her. | |
They go into the office to chat. | |
While Pixeline makes dinner, Virtuella comes home, and she catches the visitor in breaking all of the gnomes in the factory :( | |
Stupid cow, but at least she falls flat on her butt when doing it. | |
On her way home, Virtuella picked up 2 beds, and now she is trying to find a good spot for them. | |
This should be ok for now........... | |
Virtuella turns on the computer, she wants to make some sales adds, so they can get ridd of some of all the stuff they donīt need, and maybe even make some money from it. | |
Meanwhile Pixeline wants to see if she can finish one of the half made gnomes on one of the work benches. | |
Next day Pixeline checks the paper for a job, and she finds one, great :) | |
Then she has to bring down the rocket launcher, because a guy has called that he wants to buy it. | |
And later on someone comes to pick up the bookcases. | |
After moving all the office furniture out of the office Pixeline admires the empty space, finally a room without dust and weird smells, where they can move their beds into. | |
There you go, a nice bedroom, this will work just fine for now :) | |
Meanwhile the company who should install the new kitchen has been there, and when Virtuella comes home she tries it out by cooking dinner. | |
Virtuella takes a look at the old lunch room, this could be a really nice living room she thinks, with access to the balcony. | |
Someone has answered the add about the work benches, so Virtuella gets them outside so the buyer can come and pick them up. | |
After that they have a nice lunch in thier new kitchen. | |
Then they start to think about remodeling the building, they decide to start with removing the stairs in the entrance room. | |
Then Virtuella tells Pixeline about this great offer she has gotten to buy some old used windows and doors, that just would be perfect for them. | |
They get them home, and starts to restore them, it is a lot of work. | |
Pixeline realises that she is definately not dressed for this kind of work, so she changes her dress to something more apropriate. | |
When
Pixeline goes to make dinner, the dishwasher breaks. Luckily they still have the floor drains in the floor....... |
|
Next day is saturday, and they invite over 2 of the neighbours for a work lunch. | |
They get them to help with the removal of the wall between the old office and the stair room, and building 2 new walls for another bedroom. | |
Now Virtuella and Pixeline has each thier bedroom, and they spend the rest of the weekend decorating thier rooms. | |
Virtuella is a real computer freak, she loves how she can now sit at the computer without being disturbed all the time. | |
Pixeline is getting very tired, it is hard work to fix up such an old factory building. | |
She lies in bed, admiring her new room. She loves her cozy little reading corner :) | |
Over the next few weeks the girls get the living room decorated, so they have a cozy place to watch tv and talk in the evenings. | |
They talk a lot about throwing a party. | |
They also get started on replacing the upstairs windows. | |
One
weekend at a flea market, they find the perfect stuff for
the downstairs bathroom. The house is beginning to feel like home now. |
|
Last week they got a great offer on a fantastic entertainments arrangement, and today they finished putting it up. | |
It has everything, chairs, bookcases, homebar, stereo and all, it is just great. | |
When they are done they try out the new stereo with a dance. | |
While Virtuella is at work, Pixeline invites her new friend over. | |
Maybe this will end with more than friendship, because Toby is bringing cake :) | |
Virtuella is starting to do something about all that space upstairs | |
The girls have installed a darkroom, and Virtuella loves to work with her photographs | |
The downstairs living room is coming along very nicely too. | |
It looks like Virtuella is having a secret, who is that she is meeting in the laundry room ? | |
What is Drew Carrey up to with Virtuella ? | |
