Hey, Valarnet! Caroline finally convinced me to get one of these. I'm Elena Gilbert, I'm a senior at Huntington Beach High School. When I graduate I'm going to UC Irvine, though. I'm going to major in English with an emphasis in Creative Writing.

Oh, yeah, and my twin sister Katherine will probably be showing up sometime too. For the record: I straighten my hair. Katherine keeps hers curled. Just fyi.

Say you've got a dangerous weapon. Could be chemical, organic. Whatever. And it's going to go off sooner or later and hurt everything. You'd naturally destroy the thing before it hurts anybody or can get near them again, particularly when its only purpose is to wreck a path of chaos, right?

People have been having weird dreams a lot, I guess, and talking about weird dreams a lot, and all, and usually my dreams aren't very notable or I just don't really talk about them.

Except for the dreams after the tarot reading Loki did for me, those were like they were on speed, but still not very clear or sense-making.

This time, though, I think I get what you guys are talking about.

It was a very simple dream about a girl and her horse, except that girl was me and the horse had wings.

Which, whatever, but it was frighteningly real. Enough I could still feel feathers on my fingertips when I woke up. What is the internet slipping me?

Apartment broken into last night. Television and laptop taken. Fortunately, laptop's data backed up onto cloud drive. Still, had to spend day talking to police and cleaning up broken glass. Unpleasant.

Could use distraction. Perhaps La Bohème this weekend at the LA Opera.

Absolutely amazing, the first commercial spacecraft has been launched this morning. It's going to take three days to reach the ISS and deliver supplies for NASA. It's amazing to think how far we've come and how far we will go if my dreams are any indication.

All that stands between myself and graduation are an English final and a history paper. So while I WANT to be outside lounging in the hot tub, I'm putting myself to good use by being on here and not finishing the paper. But, I'm looking at it this way, tomorrow is skip day so I've got all day to get it done. Not to mention the weekend. It's not due until 3p.m. Monday.

Plenty of time.

So how are you, dear social network?

Ah, a local network! Good for community social integration without timing inconveniences of face-to-face meetings. Also seems to have effect on honesty of posters, like most forms of anonymity. Benefits of truth outweigh risk if threat of physical confrontation lessened. Digital age has produced interesting new perspective on communication.

Still prefer talking aloud, of course. Auditory learner, need to hear to stimulate thought process. But network useful during especially busy times.

In two weeks I've gone from living in a box--essentially--to living in a house, to having a roommate. I mean, she's 85, but still. It's good for a man to have someone to look after, though I let her pretend she's looking after me. Perhaps she is. It's certainly keeping me in check. I really was a good boy at some point in my life, you know.

Lost almost a stone with the illness. Makes my body feel fragile strange. What the heck--fragile. I feel old. Older than Mrs. Higgins, here. Hopefully the weight comes back soon.

But I did accidentally quit smoking. It's difficult to keep that up when you can't breathe. It seems to be sticking, too.

It has just been a really difficult few weeks. Nothing potentially death inducing and no strange dreams from me, which is something I think, when I look at the valarnet and see what everyone's been up to and doing. The only problem in my life was being broken up with, and redevoting myself to science.

I do sort of wonder, even a couple of weeks later what I did, but well, Buffy, you are still awesome and wonderful, even if we are in the friends side of things, and while I wished I could find someone on campus who does not actually know how old I am and would sell me vodka, I have gotten through it reasonably.

Even my family has been actually normal for a change. Still too reliant on the GPS when we go ANYWHERE, with the result that we get lost, and I eventually redirect traffic when they decide to listen to me, but normal, everything else considered.

And very soon, I will have a degree and I have to decide if I am going to continue in school or not. I do not know if I want to spend my life in school when I could be doing things or running lab results, but who will take me with just the lone degree again?

It is something to think about, I guess.

What is going on with the dreams here? Are you having some mass hallucination?

Sorry I disappeared. I've been away for a while. I was busy with some piloting work and it ended up they were filming in another country. I got the call late in the evening and didn't have time to let anyone know. I had to hop a plane really early in the morning. Had a neighbor watching the place and taking care of the little monster.

Ended up that the previous pilot backed out for health reasons. It was really good pay and an assistant on set recommended me to the director and a producer. I guess I lucked out.

I'm back subbing an astronomy class at a local community college for a couple of days. It's good to be home.

Looks like there's some strange things that have been happening?

I guess that means things are normal. For here, anyway.

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!

My daughter is coming to visit next weekend, but not to stay over. She'll be by for Sunday bunch and that's all, I'm afraid. I was short notice on my part and I'll take what I can get. I just need to see her more often. I had an upsetting dream that indicated just how much I need it. At least, that's what I'm telling myself the dream meant. ...Not that I'm considering the possibility that dreams mean anything at all. They don't. Dreams are dreams, just like dead is dead. There's no way around either of them. Nightmares, unfortunately, are inevitable; and some keep you from closing your eyes at night.

Hopefully, this book tour won't be the death of me. One more week. I'll celebrate Sunday.

On a completely unrelated note, where can I buy a gun?

Computers aren't really my strong point, but my son signed me up for this thing. I think he wants me to make friends or something. This is I'll admit. I'm not exactly the easiest person to get along with. Maybe a layer of anonymity is just what I need. You can call me the baroness of bud Lacy and I'm a weed dealer business woman.

Since Narcissa won't let me work in the bakery on Sunday (it's the sabbath, don't ask) I'm finishing up this huge order at the house in my kitchen. My kitchen is not big enough to make this go quickly, mind you, so it's basically taking all day. Someone remind me to thank God for that one. I'm missing out on family night.

All of today I have been haunted by the dream that I had. It was odd. Really odd actually, it is the only way to explain it. There was something called Starfleet and for some reason I was leaving the Science Track and switching to the Command Track at the suggestion of Admiral Paris?

I think it is up there with the most unusual dreams that I've ever had and I have no idea what would have prompted it. It was so clear too, not like my usual dreams which I either don't remember or not clearly and they usually fade fairly quickly too which this hasn't. It's... Well odd.

And then Dave's mother, Gladys, came to visit today and asked me how I felt about her being another grandma to me. Mom got pissed when I told her I'd like that if it meant she'd slip me cash in exchange for hugs, but SHE thought it was funny. I think that I am going to like Grandma Gladys from now on. Even though she did mess with my hair, she did give me a twenty after, and is going to teach me how to bake her cookies so that I can surprise my girlfriend with them during finals...I mean shit, I wasn't supposed to say that yet.

Once again I'm grateful that I'm an insomniac, if I wasn't to begin with I think becoming a Professor would have taught me how to become one. I do love the job, I really do but marking is the absolute bane of my existence. Thankfully there's one or two students in my class that actually know what they are talking about it makes it a bit more bearable.

Also I have never understood how you can drink coffee in anything but its natural form - black with nothing added to it.

I've kind of been giving the college thing some more thought. Obviously my parents really want me to go, but I just don't know what I could possibly study that would be interesting. Maybe I'll take my day off tomorrow and look over some brochures.

You know those dumb little stickers people put on their cars? Them, their wife, their 12 children? I hate those things.

But riding home I was stuck behind a car. It had stickers of two men and two cats.

I may have to change my opinion on those stickers because that is just awesome. The guy had good taste in music, too.

I told a patient's father today that he had, and I quote, "Breath like moldy old cheetos." Luckily, he didn't speak much English. His son that I was giving a shot to did and started laughing, so I gave him as many lollipops as I could shove in his hands and shirt pocket to bribe him to keep quiet.

Hopefully today goes by quick? Because after that, a doctor asked me what I thought of some new check-in procedures and I told him that I thought it was, and I also quote, "A big fat pile of crap that needlessly makes poor people jump through hoops of fire just to get some freakin' medical care."

My sense of tact. Where did it go? I don't know what's wrong with me. I'd never say something like that. Especially not to a patient or a patient's family. Or a doctor.

Hi, uh, Valarnet. My name's Bucky, I'm a paramedic from Brooklyn and I hope the accent doesn't throw you people off too badly. Luckily I can control it to the point that *I* don't notice, but you never know what you're going to find now that I'm somewhere where people talk funny anyway.

Uh sorry. Just an observation that was NOT supposed to come out. I'm a little blurty this morning, I suppose. It's kind of weird, but I'm going to go with it because, well, why not?

Today, while I waited for my shift to start, and before I got online to make this, I was watching the Lifetime Movie channel and it occurred to me that that was kind of pathetic so I came on here instead, especially because I'd watched the movie in question before. The seduction of the babysitter is kind of fun, but really, you see the same plot all the...

Whoa...

Why did I just admit that? Why can't I erase that either? Now you're all going to know that about me and we've just met. I secretly watch Lifetime movies, yeah. I also like soaps and soap reruns, especially Passions...

Shit.

I'm going to just go now, okay?

So, I have this friend. She is not a hypothetical person, she is not a stand-in for me. We've been friends since college. She lives in Oregon so she doesn't use this network. Well, she recently got engaged and they visited last week. I absolutely detested the guy. He's crude, he can't carry a conversation, pretty sure he can't get a credit card....

I'm making a long story very short, but I may have gone to far in telling her what I thought of him. Now she's mad at me. I'm willing to admit that I didn't hold back, but she did ask for my opinion. I gave it. The guy is a loser. I don't want my friend to marry a loser. Considering what I do for a living, I thought my opinion would matter more to her. For some reason, she's choosing him over me. I know it's because she thinks she's in love with him, but love only gets you so far. One day, I can see her waking up beside this guy and realizing she's made a huge mistake.

This... sucks.
