SECOND CHANCES NET

I got my (most recent) diamond chip ...

I think that means I deserve a pizza.

Since the memory nonsense seems to be behind us for the most part, I want to invite everyone to a catered Family and Friendsgiving on the roof on Thursday, starting at 5 PM. Bring your hungry mouths and whatever your heart leads you to bring.*

There'll be games and silly prizes, and probably a TV or two for the sportsball-inclinwd.

Gimme a shout below so I've got a head count, and if you want to bring something, drop it in, too. 💜💜💜



_{(*Not a requirement for attendance! I've heard about how some of you are in the kitchen.)}

Hargreeves Birthday! Hargreeves Birthday! Hargreeves Birthday!

Also, I got kicked out of my first study group, and I can't decide what I blame more: my fortune cookie or the jerk who had terrible opinions on immigrant issues. I couldn't just let it slide, so now I have to find a new one. Totally worth it. The new one will be loads better.

Castro Street Fair is today, and I need street fair food. Who's going with me?

You want to know what's sort of lame about my power?

I have to die to heal, when it would be just as convenient to heal like... without all the extra-ness.

Though, I don't know that if I was asked right now to pick the power I would have for the rest of my life if I would pick healing. Maybe something cooler like mind reading. That would be neat.

Anyway, Barton-Hargreeves, I cut my hand open, so like... ignore the blood in the kitchen. I'll clean it up when I'm done getting stitched up.

SO. Folsom Street Fair (NSFW kinda - leather/kink references) is this weekend to wrap up San Francisco's leather week. Who wants to come exploring with me?

Bachelorette weekend for May, yes/yes?

I was thinking spa weekend. Massages, mud wraps, hair treatment, the works. Or maybe a cabin getaway in the mountains? She's definitely not a Vegas strip show sort!

Anyone else going to the bar being set up on the roof tonight?

I AM TREATING US TO A SPA DAY IN WHICH WE ARE GOING TO DISCUSS THIS BECAUSE I NEED DETAILS.

BARTON. (Stupid Male Barton, not 'my best niece' Barton.) We need to have words.

You three, too, but his reaction at being singled out is a lot more fun.

» Whatcha doin?

Hey guys.


I'm partnering with the high school to do a music summer learning program. Each camp will be two weeks long and depend on the skill level of the entering student.

June 12- 23 will be for beginners-- those wanting to learn the basics of instruments.

June 26 - July 7 -- will be for intermediate players, who are looking for a challenge.

July 10 - July 21 -- is for those who feel very familiar with their instrument of choice and are looking for a challenge.



I will also be providing tutoring for anyone looking to learn how to play the Violin, or the guitar, as needed one a one-to-one basis.

This isn't going to make sense to a lot of you


but there is nothing I miss more than how good snacks were when I was high.

Dragons. Of course their are Dragons on the day we are flying out of here... I don't suppose we can trade our plan tickets for a dragon flying in that direction, huh?

Clint, baby, remember to feed the cat. And Lila, you're in charge.

[Hargreeves Siblings, May & Clint]

Ben... has been having a rough time lately. And I... am not the best guardian probably. I didn't see it for what it was and I let it get out of control. I'm not exactly the best at teaching coping skills.

That being said, Ben and I are going to DC for a few days. He needs a break from school and a change of scenery to do something fun. He picked the Smithsonian.

After our talk, though, he agreed to let me find him a therapist. It's going to be a little hard, I don't imagine there are too many that deal with his particular situation, but I told him we would try a few different ones until he found someone he likes. I don't really know what I'm doing here, but I wanted to keep you guys on the same page. Just in case he needs more help than I can give him.

Look, we all know I like to indulge in a bit of hyperbole, but things are kind of dire in the Barton-Hargreeves apartment at the moment.

Has anyone seen Ben's homework planner, by any chance? He's kind of losing i

[Hargreeves and Adjacent]

No, but really, I'm kind of worried about him. He hasn't hit the rest of the apartment with the fervor he got his room with, but it might be a matter of time. Place looks like a disaster area that's been trashed twice.

How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

OK I Know the idea got tossed around not long ago of having a family dinner. We really should do that soon.

[Filtered away from anyone who believes in the Easter Bunny]

I hope the kids like their Easter baskets. I always make one for Peter, even if he gently ribs me about it. This year was extra special since I got to make ones for Dee and Lyra too. Happy Easter, everyone!

Getting some good target practice in with the Easter Bunny.

Um. Giant bunny alert? It handed me a carrot and bounced away.

I'm very disconcerted, but at least I'll have a better chance to have good eyesight?

I just got my whole physics class to play The Floor is Lava!

Fortunately, the prof was more amused than anything, but I have to write a short paper about what would happen to San Francisco if it was consumed by magma to make up for the interruption.

My brother-in-law throws one amazing party. You, too, Daisy, but I'm not legally obligated to love you the same!

And Scott? You're kind of my hero. Bouncy castles are the best. I'm pretty sure we can just chalk up another one under 'Ways Reginald Hargreeves Denied His Kids a Good Upbringing".
