Okay so. Valarnet. Don't ask me how I pulled it off, but I TOTALLY pulled it off and stating tonight, well technically tomorrow at midnight we are gonna have the most bitching party in like. Ever. Slumber party at the little café on ULCA's campus. Well, you don't have to stay overnight but I so am. We're there from the stroke midnight Wednesday, to the same stroke of on Friday and it is gonna be amazing. Forty eight hours of me, five hundred macarons, ALL THE COFFEE WE COULD EVER WANT, entertainment, a study table way off in the corner for the losers, music, drunk twister, drunk EVERYTHING and I really, really hope that you can come?


You don't even have to be a student to show up though really, what better way to blow off the last week of classes you don't even wanna BE in? This is going to be AMAZING and I really hope you come!

This gun is getting chucked into the ocean. At the very least it will be water damaged and unusable if I do that, right?

I don't know if this musket is a prop from Courfeyrac's collection that somehow migrated into my closet, or if it's something else entirely, but it's staying very firmly in the back of my closet.

More dreams, as seems to be the trend around the 'net lately.

For some reason these didn't upset me as much as the ones about my father did. I think because I've come to expect these, I've been anticipating them for a long time.

I dream about the barricades. Well, not the barricades. Nothing was built yet. But we were melting down anything metal we could get our hands on, and discussing our plan for what was going to happen should LaMarque take a turn for the worst.

And then it happened. LaMarque died, and there was rioting in the streets. I woke up before things got too violent, thank god. But people were hurt, people were shot and trampled and it was --

Real. It was all so real. Like I was right there, in the action. Shouting along with everyone.

I find it somewhat pathetic and horrifying that I need to state these rules for visiting our home, but unless you happen to be Combeferre, and only Combeferre, because he has more than the sense God gave a mosquito, I would like to set a few guidelines out regarding other people's animals and visits.

I can't believe it's been four months, already.  Time has flown, and I've never been happier. I feel like everything is a little brighter, a little more colourful whenever she's with me. She's made the world a better place just by being in it, and she's made my life so much sweeter by being with me.

What does one do for monthly milestones? I'm taking her out to dinner, of course, but I want to do something more.

There was a dachshund in the cafe today. A sweet little thing, and his name was Napoleon. Because of the dreams about my father, I find this absolutely hilarious and appropriate.

There isn't much better than coffee in the early evening on a day off.

Even if this coffee maker is possibly also a spaceship. Technology: it's not as if I do not understand it, but when did it ever get so convoluted to the point where I might have to read a manual in order to make something as simple as a warm drink?

I had an odd dream last night.

Grandfather and I were fighting, but that wasn't anything new. What was odd was that we were dressed like something out of a Dickens novel. Really old fashioned. Probably like what my friends have dreamt, come to think of it.

We were fighting politics, like we always do, but we also argued about my father, which is something we'd never really talked about, in real life. My parents both died when I was young, so my aunt and my grandfather raised me. But in my dream, my grandfather kept insisting that my father wanted nothing to do with me.

Anyway, I was angry at grandfather for making me go visit my father, but when I arrived I found out that he had been very sick and passed away the night before. So I went to church and spoke to the a man there, who told me that my father came to church every Sunday just to see me, but that he wasn't allowed to talk to me or I'd lose my inheritance.

Which, of course, meant another huge argument with grandfather for lying to me all these years. In my dream I decided to try and find out more about my father, and as it turns out, he was a war hero.

I woke up feeling furious with grandfather (nothing new) and deeply upset that I was never able to know my father, either in real life or in my dreams.

I'm not sure what all of this means, but it wasn't the most pleasant of experiences. I'm starting to see what my friends were talking about.

Parental Updates!

Today, I had a letter, cosigned by their lawyer, informing me that I have been formally disowned, with the agreement that tuition for the next semester (and following) "will be covered, provided that you manage to pass the semester, and contingent upon your remaining free from academic probation status".

My family name and fortune may be retained if I "return to Massachusetts to complete (your) course of study at an approved university, agreeing to a position within the firm upon (your) graduation" and "cease the antics learned in California and grow up".

There's even a form for me to fill out and sign and date to indicate my decision, along with a place for a witness to sign it for me.

I shouldn't be surprised. I really shouldn't be surprised and it's exactly what I wanted but I can't help hating them a lot right now. It's not the money. It's the way they decided to do it that...

I guess I shouldn't have expected more, but I'll survive. I took two pairs of shoes, my boots (yeah I was a little teary there. I'm man enough to say it) and some clothes in to sell today and I've emerged okay for all the major expenses, dropped off some resumes, and I've been taking a look at my expenses this afternoon. It's kind of shocking and depressing and disgusting really:

Courf's Monthly Budget Attempt (Current) )

So, clearly, I've got some big decisions to make, even once I've GOT a job, considering this is what I'm doing AFTER rent. Dropping lessons isn't an option I'm remotely entertaining and if that means I'm getting shampoo at the dollar store, cutting back on the coffee, stopping with the clothes, and making some changes, I'm willing to do it.

There are a lot more important things to consider, sure, but for now, it's a start?

I am so very, very, overwhelmed...

In light of what was brought to light recently, and especially because of the post Mister Valjean posted himself, I would like to give my opinion on the matter. That opinion is as follows:

Ultime Fauchelevent is a good man, and I know that Jean Valjean was as well. He made a mistake and served his time for it, and that is all that can be asked of him. Let us not criticize him for past mistakes, nor continue to make him pay for them. What is done is done.

He has been nothing but welcoming to myself and my friends, taking us into his home and under his wing. I cannot imagine him as anything but good, honest, fair, and humane.

Let us allow he and his daughter to live in peace.

I wish to confront the scurrilous rumors by the newspapers and set the record straight.

My name is Jean Valjean, and I was an inmate in La Santé Prison for six years during my youth for petty robbery.

I served my time, and was released, moving to the United States for a fresh start. I am a free man, and while I regret the deception it seemed the best course at the time.

Your understanding and appreciation of my family's privacy is most welcome during this time.

[[someone just woke up after Courf's party... somehow at his own place]]

My friends are all amateurs.

In related news, I now own an espresso machine. Marius, I may need you to teach me how to use it. It is defiantly standing in the way between me and coffee.

Instead, I shall go to the cafe.

If I can find a clean shirt that's actually my own.

I think that we can all say that last night went about as well as any of us who know better expected, and that I owe several people apologies for some of the things I said and did last night, and into this morning. I'll save those for when my head is not pounding with the force of a herd of... Courfeyrac, presumably you know what type of dinosaur pounds around in herds so I can use this metaphor properly? The force of a herd of something at any rate. Those apologies will be forthcoming when I can make myself properly ashamed enough to care.

At the moment though, I would really like to learn who is responsible for (Insert image file of his waistcoat here) this Thing being on my person when I woke. Just who in their right mind comes up with it. I do not intend to wear it. Ever.

((OOC: Some images of the waistcoat)) )

That was some party. I had a sip or two from Alyssa's flask, but otherwise I might have been one of the only sober people there. It's also a good thing that the police didn't ask for IDs when they stopped by.

Scoot, do you even remember the party?

I was doing my homework and suddenly there was a kitten on my laptop.

I'm pretty sure we don't have a kitten, but I could be wrong. In fact, given the evidence purring in my lap right now, I'm 100% certain I was wrong and we do, in fact, have a kitten.

Which leads to a very important question:

Why do we have a kitten?

I have no idea why I am admitting this on a public forum, where it will probably come back to bite me in the ass later, but I'm already composing a piece for one of the blogs anyway, so hell with it, the valarnet can know these personal details about my life.

Today, I stole something from a job. As in, I went out to the site I was investigating, did my poking around, and interviewing and snapped some secret photos, then I found something I needed to take out of there, slid it up my coat sleeve, and booked it out of there.

With any luck, they're never gonna notice, even when I blow the lid on the bastards this week.

worth it? worth it. )

...Holy shit what do I do with it?

Attention valarnet. Since Enjolras has yet again done something asstastic to me, and seems to be feeling appropriately guilty, and because *I* feel really guilty for provoking it, and being immature about something that's really important, and that really matters, we've got a LOT of tension floating around in the cyberspace between us. We're probably gonna be worse in public until we've gotten the air all cleared.

My proposal? Make Out Session!

For those worried, I am feeling better. A bit, anyway.

Mostly I feel very sorry for those caught in the quarantine who were here to visit me. I'm sorry if I've gotten anyone in trouble, and I do appreciate each and every one of you that's come to wish me well.

Hopefully the end is in sight, and this will all be over soon.

Seeing as I'm likely to be confined to my home for New Year's, for whatever reason he can come up with this time...

Are there any interesting books that someone could suggest? Or a movie I might rent?

My father's idea of "fun" on New Year's Eve is board games, which become rather dull when they're all one-on-one.
