My boyfriend currently thinks I'm a 'wanker.' Why, you ask? Because I inadvertently messed up his phone while on a date...when I tackled him into the ocean.

For the record, his phone was not the only 'victim.' And I have ordered us new cell phones that match. Is there justification in his assessment? Discuss.

Also, given the lack of phone, email is the best way to contact us.

Caspian got back recently and I have to say Peter is so much happier now. It's pretty good to see my brother with a big smile on his face again. Being sad doesn't suit him. Or Caspian for that matter.

I swear if anybody tries to come between them again I am going on a rampage. Love and happiness like they have is something to be treasured and aspired to not torn down because it doesn't fit with your small minded view of the world. Anyway, it's all good now and he's home. Everything feels like it should again.

I return from visiting my uncle in Europe and a few days later, the OC turns into a frozen 'wonderland.' It's nice to see that things have continued to stay interesting here but despite all that, I do have to admit that I missed everything and am very glad to be back in my true home.

Did I miss anything else of interest during the past month of my absence?

So, except for the home brewed beer, I'm pretty much all of this. No regrets.

Also, next week OsCorp is going to be up and running. I'm slowly firing all my dad's guys or sending them back to NYC, and putting in my own team. Orange County has a pretty good wealth of resources. No sense in not using it to my advantage.

I'm fairly certain that my sister is trying to make me fat. She has brought pie home from work at least twice a week since Caspian went to England. I like pie just as much as the next person, but a man can only eat so much pie. I may have to start looking into a gym membership if she keeps this up.

Wednesday at Eve is going to be a special event. Waving the cover charge, a couple new bands will be showcasing.

Ladies only, as always.

You're invited. Special guest.

Well, well, well, Orange County. Finally I get sent somewhere that I can have a little fun. Just in time for beach season, too.

I guess I should formally introduce myself. I'm Harry Osborn, and I'm going to be running the big new OsCorp building that's just gone up in Santa Ana. Our doors officially open at the end of the month, so I've got a couple of weeks to bum around and see what there is out here. Where do all the cool kids hang out?

Caspian has had to go see his uncle for some reason or another. Miraz wouldn't actually tell Caspian what he needed to talk to him about, but I suspect its just another attempt to break us up. He has never been supportive of our relationship, but Caspian has never cared what Miraz thought, because he knew his parents would have approved. So whatever Miraz has up his sleeve, it's not going to work. I just hope it doesn't keep Caspian away for too long.

I have watermelon sorbet, and you're jealous.

I've been officially working at The Pie Hole for a week! The best part is that I haven't dropped anything yet and all of the customers have been so nice! It's a fun job, I'm not sure waitressing is my dream job but I do love talking to people and Ned is great to work for x

It's safe to say that I have not had a very good day. It started this morning when I got hit in the face by a rubber glove that a little boy was playing with while the doctor examined his dog. It stung, but it wasn't that bad. What was worse was when I got bit by a hamster after lunch. They warn you that hamster bites hurt, but you don't think from looking at one that it would hurt that much. I will tell you that a hamster bite is bloody horrendous. Literally and figuratively. I'm very much looking forward to going home tonight.

It appears that my boss is moving, but luckily the clinic will remain open and run by another vet there. I had been worried briefly that I'd need to find another job already and I've only had this one for a short time. So I'm very relieved that I won't need to look for a few job, but it is unfortunate that my boss is moving.

So I need a job. I can't keep scrounging off my brother or my savings and it might help me decide what I actually want to do with my life.

I've been told people here can be pretty handy so if you know of anything please let me know!

Oh I'm living in the Seal Beach area and don't have a car.

I think I kind of love it here already. It's nice not to be travelling around all the time and staying with my brother and his boyfriend is a great bonus. They suggested I try this out since people were really friendly and I don't know anybody here.

My name's Lucy and I've been travelling since finishing school in the UK. I hope everybody has a great day x
