Thanks to everyone who came to my birthday party on Saturday. I had a wonderful time, and hope you did, too! For everyone who missed it, I'm still accepting presents. ;)

So this is Orange County. I've heard stories about this place. Should be an interesting stay. The job better be worth it, that's all I can say.

I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Athos and I'm new around here. Like that wasn't really obvious.

I've decided my apartment is terribly lonely. Which is generally nice, but I'm a social creature at heart, and even when I'm reading or something, I'd still rather do it in company than on my own. So I've done something brash and exciting and got myself a kitten.

Cut for image, warning: kitten. )

I've named him Bazin. It just came to me, though I'm not sure why, but there you have it. He's blind, so I've got all sorts of jingly toys. He's lively when he wants to play, but mostly he's content to curl up in a lap or on a warm spot on the carpet. And it gives me reason to constantly chatter, he likes to follow me around.

In any case, I'm smitten. I'm sorry to all the lovely ladies and handsome men, but my heart has been taken by Bazin and I don't think I'll ever get it back.

So, hey, public network. That's kind of neat.

I was wondering if anyone else on here is attending USC? I transferred in a while back, but haven't really managed to meet many people. Figured I'd give this a try. If you're looking for study buddies or just to hang out hit me up.

A part-time job also wouldn't be the worst thing ever so if anyone has tips on somewhere to work that wouldn't be at the mall or slinging burgers around that would be awesome.

I don't know who I'd say my best friend is here (as I'm not the sort of person to give people titles unless we have a legal reason to do so), but I'm really glad that they're not a Vicodin addicted asshole that I'm forced to rat out to a detective. Then I just feel guilty. Well. More guilty than usual.

Stupid dreams, I feel all weird and punch drunk after I have them, even though they're not that different from my daily life. Just more drama because of said asshole.

Anybody know of a good contract lawyer out here? I don't need one drawn up but I do need somebody to look one over and make sure I'm not putting too much faith in the company's reputation getting screwed if I sign this.

[Private to Izzy Lightwood]
They offered me a contract Izzy. No games, no run around like I've been getting. Just straight out offered it to me.

[Private to Audrey]
You're not going to fire me are you? Now that I've got a potential contract?

[Private to Gwen Stacey]

This is going to sound strange considering the source, but men really are babies about being ill. I did my shift in the ER helping out, and in a ten hour shift, I had fifteen men come in with headcolds. Headcolds aren't really an emergency. They're not usually something to see the doctor about. Tea and bedrest, and soldier on, my friends. But hey, it's your insurance deductible, who am I to judge?

I really appreciate the gesture, but if everyone could stop gifting me menorahs at work? I have eight, one for each night of Hanukah, which is ... not really how it works.

I'd also have, for future reference anyone who works with me or is one of my patients who reads this (Watson, I think you're the only one, but I'm thinking wishfully), gifts in the form of donations to cancer charities.

I feel like I relate to this far more than I strictly ought to.

That, and there's apparently a twitter called VeryBritishProblems. I think there's quite a few of us here on the 'net that would appreciate and sympathize with most of those tweets.

Friday 25th October - Audrey's hen party!

We'll meet at the bakery and go from there. We're hitting a club and there will be strippers. I have the feather boa and sash for her to wear - if anybody wants to add to that please feel free!

Looking forward to seeing you all :D

Hey, y'all! So the vintage of my wine that just came out good for drinkin' - I made way too much. So I'm gonna give anyone who answers this a free bottle of their choosin'. Just let me know what kinda fruit you like best, and I probably have somethin' you can have.

Legal people. No high schoolers are gettin' free wine from me. Jail ain't near as fun as they make it out to be on Showtime late at night.

Today, we'd all like to point out that it is one of our older brothers' birthdays. So if you see Perfect Percy Proudly Passing (haha alliterations) do us a favor and do the most embarrassing thing you can think of to him.

Talking usually does the trick.

Happy Birthday, dude bro.

Oh dear, the summer really does go by fast doesn't it?

I'm actually kind of looking forward to going back to school. It's been a very long summer trying to keep myself going studying. It gets hard, you know, managing all that without some sort of instructor guiding you properly or at all, really given that it's summer.

Father has a new book going to print in a few weeks, and I'm rather excited for him even if it does mean that he'll be going on tour again and I'll have the house to myself for far, far too long. It gets empty. Don't get me wrong, I'm pleased that they trust me enough to leave me unsupervised for long periods of time, but I do wish we could get a cat.

Sadly, mother's allergic, and even if she isn't home all that much she'd still know. I tried once to keep a kitten hidden in my room when I was little. It turns out that I'm not very good at hiding things like that. Important things, sure, but not that.

The good news about the book tour and mother's increased workload means that at some point soon I will, perhaps, be getting a car so as to more easily fend for myself. I'm sure they'll forget, but that's okay. I've been taking public transit long enough to be able to manage. Besides, I'm young and my legs are strong. I can walk or ride my bike if needs must. Still, a car would be exciting, wouldn't it?

Typing one handed is not easy. I was making dinner tonight and for whatever reason I went to pick up a pot off the stove to drain it and forgot a pot holder. I wound up burning my fingers. They're not that bad, but they hurt like hell. How is it that I can work in a restaurant and not hurt myself, but I cook at home and burn myself?

Consider this a warning to my clientele: if you make any sort of disparaging comment about a lady due to her choice of vocation or her sexuality, I will not serve you. And I will advise my professional acquaintances not to serve you either.

Women are allowed to be sexual beings at appropriate times, just like men. None of my shopgirls work in the sex trade, but for the record, if they did or if they ever have, it would be no business of mine. I will not tolerate unreconstructed attitudes toward my staff or myself. Or the adopted mother of my child.

Do I make myself clear?

I am glad to say I finally managed to get a job, and get most definitely settled again. It's a engineering design and support job for the headquarters of a company that just moved into the area, called Genesis, Inc. They are small, but they seem really nice. Most of their business has been in Egypt and Greece, apparently, helping spread technology infrastructure in some of the more remote areas.

So, that's fun! I spent a lot of this month in training with them, learning their policies and their style of equipment and business. I am very excited about working with them and already enjoying this job!

Since I'm getting married and all, I made Bride and Groom Cupcakes! They come in a pair, discounted heavily for any Valarnet people who want them. (I'll also sell "Bride and Bride" and "Groom and Groom" cupcakes, obviously.)

They go absolutely WONDERFULLY with the sparkling milk lattes.

Destination, Determination and Deliberation.

Well. I had all three, and I seemed to have managed apparition for the very first time. I figured it was about time to make the effort, since in my dreams I had just gotten my license for it.

They were not wrong, it definitely makes you vomit the first go around. Fairly unfortunate that, but at least I was prepared to expect it.

Remember how people said 'it could always be worse' to you when you were a kid, ostensibly to get you to cheer up?

Paula Deen is allegedly going to do nude modeling for a site called PureMature.com. Somewhere, somehow, that woman is going to be naked and on the internet.

When did it become July? My Bar exam is at the end of the month and I'm trying not to mentally count down the days and freak myself out. Thankfully Percy Weasley has been an amazing help in coming up with some practice exams and my friend, Sam, has helped remind me to just calm down and not over study. I feel pretty prepared and I almost wish time would go faster so I could take the exam and be done.

On another note, I had another of my Dreams last night. It was more space time adventures. I got away from my home planet with the help of the Jedi and we were in a bit of a space battle with other ships. Thankfully this amazing droid called R2D2 helped fix the ship enough for us to land on another planet. Qui-Gon and I decided to head into the planet's main downtown to find parts for the ship which was definitely an interesting experience. We found a shop to help us get pieces, although the owner (another alien) was definitely greedy and sleazy, and met a boy that he had as a slave. YES, a slave. That infuriates me so much that not everyone in this universe is free (I know it's weird to get upset over things in a world that doesn't exist, but basic human rights). He seemed like a very sweet boy though and invited us over for dinner, which is where my dream ended. I'm really curious as to what is going to happen.

How many people out there really play this Candy Crush game? I mean it seems like every place I look there is someone playing it... Though I have to admit I have been playing myself. It started out as a challenge between the dance girls to see who could get the farthest and I still find myself playing more than I care to admit. Not so much now that I have beat all the levels available in the app.

Yeah, I need to find something else to do with my time. I do have a few new photo shoots coming up thankfully.

Should I just ... not tell her?
