SECOND CHANCES NET

That moment when you've gotten rid of most of your hobby sets, promised yourself you weren't going to get any more, have actually held to that self-promise, but now aren't quite sure what to do with the time you would have normally spent putting together fiddly bits of plastic.

I need a new hobby like I need a new hole in my head (no comment from the peanut gallery), buuuut suggestions for what I might do with myself?


Wrong answers only.

Anyone got any fun plans for the weekend? Knocking on wood that nothing weird happens.

Any plans to celebrate first contact day?

Are they gone yet? Is it over?

The adults are stressed, and I want to help.

We shouldn't do anything stupid like try to fight any of these new people who are giving everyone the creeps on our own, but maybe we can be spies. Like, we can use our seeming lack of attention span to our advantage and just sort of be in common places "on" our phones, but we're really watching people's movements and listening to their conversations and reporting back to a group chat.

Is that a stupid idea?

That rain was almost as bad as a Nor'easter back home. I'm glad we don't live at the bottom of one of the hills here.

San Francisco! I love San Francisco. Been a favourite of mine ever since Joe and I had a good chat about bridge designs.

Hello! I'm The Doctor.

I won't be home tonight; don't be alarmed. Does anyone need anything? How are we doing as far as these curses go?

At first I was like "awwww, secret admirer?" but there was no note and then like...singing telegram?? And the singing telegram happens to be a groundhog which, okay, I guess it's groundhogs day or whatever, it's cute enough if not super effing weird that IT CAN SING.

But it isn't going away. It's been following me all morning. And it only sings Britney Spears songs apparently? I love Brit Brit but this is a bit much. From the Bottom of My Broken Heart? REALLY????

This isn't a reflection on Dylan at all (you're great, I promise!), but if I spend one more week in high school, I may just have to figure out a way to get to the Mirror Dimension so I can break and then repair the Seam like future!me apparently did complain impotently about it.

From the looks of it, there are a few of us not currently afflicted by whatever this is that is going on.

Please let me or one of the others know if we can help with anything, given our "free hands" as it were.

I am sorry. Let me know if I can help in any way. Making sure you aren't worrying about cooking, taking Morgan for a bit, whatever you need.

Well, damn.

Is that funny, considering?

Not an actual question.

Anyway, Santa gave me these books, and it's one of those things where I love the stories but I hate the author and the origins are steeped in the kind of tragedy I'm currently in therapy to unpack. But... if I promise not to share the background trauma or nerd out hard over them, would anyone like to borrow the Fillory books?

(This is why I'm not in advertising.)

Maybe it's the wedding falling on the heels of the holidays, but I've still got some lingering Holly Jollys going on.

Anybody celebrating anything anytime soon?

The age limit on these snowglobes is stupid. I've literally traveled across entire kingdoms without adults, but I can't go visit like...Norway or Thailand or something? Pathetic.

I have a present for you guys. We can call it Reggie's birthday present that all of you can enjoy, too.

It got me an A.

Where does one even go "anywhere in the world" when you're used to being among the stars?

I happily accept suggestions.

Well...shit.

That's all I gotta say about that.

[Steve Rogers]

Drinks?

[Yelena]

Where are you?

So, weird ask, but can the people who might be cooking for Thanksgiving save whatever disposable cookware you're using? I'll come and wash them after, so you don't have to.

When you've been wearing bright yellow gold for years, suddenly finding yourself in all orange, isn't the biggest shock in the world. But I'm still glad that Starfleet never embraced orange for the uniforms. Even if it is high visibility or what have you.

Either I've finally gone crazy... or everything sort of tastes like pumpkin?

Um, what?

I don't know if that was meant to be motivational or ominous, but if it's the latter, got to hand it to you. First time I've gotten death threat via fortune cookie.

I've been a bit busy for a while. Working at the new job, and it's great. So I just wished to let my friends and allies know that I've sort of got a promotion. I am now working as security for the museum. Night shift, of course. :)
