Network

A little over a month to finish the preparations for the wedding. I can do this. I'm Pepper Potts, multitasker extraordinaire.

Because I don't have enough things on my plate I'd like to take this opportunity to announce a charity event Stark Industries will be throwing on March 15th. The event will take place at Stark Industries where local artists will be displaying their own personal works to be auctioned off at a live auction. All of the proceeds will go to the Children's Hospital of Orange County. There will be an official press release with all pertinent information on Saturday, but I thought I would give everyone here on the network a head's up since I know a lot of you get paid on Fridays.

If you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to ask.

Oh physics, the gift that keeps on giving! :D

Its hard to explain how excited and in awe I am of the fact that a lump of rock half the size of a soccer field has just come inside the orbits of our geosynchronous satellites and had it's orbit irrevocably altered by Earth's gravitational pull!

It kind of makes me hot...

I love my field of work, there's always so much going on. I've always found black holes to be incredible. It's amazing to think how far we have come and with research and dedication we will continue to make new and fascinating discovery's. Science geeks will eventually take over the world ;)

I'm having far too much fun in my pick-up rugby team, I may never leave Irvine.

If anyone wants to join us, by the way, we're a very friendly group of lads. Ladies welcome too, of course. We're not overly competitive, we really just play for a bit of fun over at the Irvine campus, since a few of the boys go to school there.

Thank you everyone for your support and kind words last time I posted here... And even those of you that offered advice masked in rudeness.

To those of you that even care to know, you're looking at the new Marian Paroo in The Music Man... It's only a small theater's production, but I guess it's a start in the direction that most of you wanted to see me in... And because of that, I expect each of you there on opening night to make sure I don't croak.

Well this is a bunch of balls.

If I die from this shit, then you guys can split my stuff. Oh and make sure my tombstone says how amazing I am, and how nice my rack was. You can donate that shit to science.

Has anyone heard from Thor yet? Please tell me that Skeeter woman's not telling the truth!

Ladies & Gentlemen, boys and girls and whatever you identify with, I have an announcement. Big, life changing announcement actually.

Well, not for you. I mean, your lives will basically be the same.

I, Tony Stark, will be marrying the hell out of Pepper Potts because I asked her and she said yes. And if any of you talk her out of it, I'll find where you live and blast metal outside your house while you try to bring home your date for the first time. You know the one, the hot architect or whatever.

But seriously. We're engaged.

I have been studying for nearly four days straight and my eyes are starting to go funny! For the record, no. I don't have a test or anything.

That's normal...right?

So Xi'an and I are going to get married, and there's too many people I want to tell that it'll take me awhile, so consider this a formal announcement!

When did grown adults start dressing up for Halloween? I'm not judging, I genuinely feel like I missed a memo somewhere.

Jane, I think he thinks it's time for a visit.

Tonight's self-defense class, Defending Against Multiplying Furballs, has been canceled due to nobody having a damn clue how to get rid of them all, yet, or at least nobody sharing that with the self-defense teacher.

In other news, having a broken hand makes it hard to type and harder to punch people. I'm sharing that in case you've never experienced it on your own, because it isn't really new news to me.

Posting open call for all geneticists, biologists, and other scientifically-oriented persons. Creature population size growing increasingly problematic. Suggest working together to find solution. Have already done multiple tests. Findings:

• DNA varies wildly from any other species on earth. Possibly not of terrestrial origin. Sounds far-fetched, but not ruling out possibility.
• Subjects begin reproducing from moment of birth; essentially "born pregnant".
• Attracted to and will eat most carbohydrates.
• No natural predators means population will continue to grow unchecked. Suggest haste in finding solution.

So. When I went to bed last night I had one Rocky. When i woke up today I had a Rocky and a Frank and a Magenta. I dont even...

I mean I like them but that was really really wierd, wyrd bizare. I couldnt tell that she was even pregnant. I meen an exam didnt show that and I cant figure out how to spay or neuter these guys. None of my books or websites are telling me anything about these guys. I really want to know if Im takeing care of them right but I just don't know.

Maybe the exotic's guy or somebody at school?

What does one give as a birthday present to the man they've started going out with, when it feels that it might turn serious soon, but none of you have said it yet?

...I'm falling for someone. I thought that it would never happen. I've no idea what to expect.

Important question:

Do I get a dog or not? How many of you are dog people?

Just in case anyone was doubting the size of my dogs, ( here's a picture of Cyrano with a show judge from last weekend. )

Of course, I can't post show pictures without showing off ( everyone in the van on the way over. )

No, of course they don't really ride in the car like that, but when it's time for a break, dog pile. Or dog tower, you could say.

Guess this week could be worse. Learned a lot about animals.

Gotta admit though, it wouldn't have been how I'd have chosen to spend my time.

Some weekends it doesn't pay to be the one on call. Yesterday was...bad. Really bad.

I really really want to quit the practice for the summer. Im not sure I can do this.

I'm flying across the country to Virginia today for, um, the next day and a half; FVS is still open but I'm not the vet on call right now.

Anyone want anything from the State for Lovers?

Introducing, at two weeks old, ( the newest litter! )

Hello Jane! You should probably know this is a private message. :)

I was wondering if you would like to go on a date with me sometime? I really like you, I think you're a good friend, and I'd like to get to know you better. I think you're very pretty, too. I'd really like it if you'd like to go out, but if you wouldn't, I promise I won't make a big scene about it and if you want me to have a different supervisor next semester that's okay too.

Would you like to go for a walk sometime?

Whoever knew April 26 was such a terribly busy day in the grand scheme of things?

Hullo, this is Bob Howard, bold and brash enough to put his full name out there on the Internet where just anyone could see and Google him, how scandalous is that? Why no, my parents don't know how Googling someone works! HULLO AVA, HOW ARE YOU, SIS.

Yeah, I know, I used to have an account somewhere on here else. It broke, I lost the password down a well, where my dog ate it and then expired because I forgot to renew him on my library card; you know how it goes, surely.

This is Ilyana, and she's due to give birth to her second litter in a month.

I'm mostly showing off her silly face lounging like that -- she's pregnant, see, the rest of the pack have to wait on her -- because I want everyone to see how beautiful she is, as I've estimated five pups on palpation and between two and all five will be available for sale. Drumming up early interest because background checks take time!

Night Terrors and the VA can both kiss my hairy, gun toting ASS .
