Second Chances: the Network

We were meant to get back into the city tonight but there's a roadblock? Does anyone know anything about this?

There was meant to be a detour but it's blocked too.

I GOT A JOB.

I wasn't worried about it because the government lady assured me they would help me find something, but I thought it might be in a shop or a barista instead of what I was doing at home. But no, they sent me on a few interviews with some different PR firms and I'm going to start on Monday with one that works with entertainment and sports brands.

Also, I just wanted to thank everyone for being so nice. I was really freaked out when I got here and you were all brilliant at answering my questions and helping me understand what the hell was going on.

So this is nineteen?

Sweet!

Maybe one of these days I won't be as excited about another rotation around the sun (or mundane things like school), but when you've outlived your original expiration date by two years these things are still kind of a big deal.

(and Happy Birthday, Klaus [and Jinu]!)

Hello!

I'm Caitlin Snow. I've met some of you before, but I am looking for a job and wondered if anyone was looking for someone to work in a lab? I have a degree in bioengineering and I've dabbled in physics.

Thank you for your time.

OKAY SO. It's the end of September and I have to pull myself back together so you know what that means!

GIANT HALLOWEEN BASH! Edge of Glory will be hosting, costumes OBVIOUSLY encouraged. Go as wild as you want but important bits must be covered because I love you all but I'm not losing my liquor license for you. There will be prizes for some categories (think best group, spookiest, funniest, best mashup, coupl ah fuck it cutest couple, and probably more as I think about them).

Family friendly till 8, 18+ after that (and shouldn't you smol people be Trick or Treating anyway?)

Drink specials all night long and we'll be open till 2am. Halloween is on a Friday this year and we're going BIG so go practice your best Thriller and I'll see everyone there!

Not sure how people can deal with years of schooling when I can barely get through the week without wanting to throw things. How is it not Friday yet?

Someone please explain to me what the hell just happened. The government types said a bunch of shit that I think they made up.
