WHO: Bridget Grant → Helene Aquilla
WHEN: June 6, morning and then afternoon
WHERE: Her bedroom
SUMMARY: Bridget has two memories, one that leaves her exhausted and another that leaves her sad.
WARNINGS: None, I think!

( It was odd, it wasn't like her, but she knew exactly who it was to blame for this feeling. Helene. Or, more accurately, Laia. Or, more accurately still, Elias. )

Oceana, remember that birthday of yours that fell just after we both finished up at Juilliard and we were broke as can be, barely able to afford that apartment, but determined to do something nice for your birthday? So I bought the cheapest box of cake mix and tub of frosting that I could find, whipped it all up, and then promptly forgot about it in the oven and then nearly burned down that apartment we could barely afford. And then I threw in the towel, borrowed some money from my mom, and took you to the diner for something greasy and wasn't charred chocolate cake.

It feels like that was both a long time ago and yesterday, which I think means we're both getting advanced in age.

Happy birthday to you, my friend. I love you and you deserve only the very best of things. Make sure that boy of yours takes you out for something better than charred chocolate cake.

I know that you probably have prolonged birthday stuff between yesterday and your sister's today, but if you possibly have some time tonight, even if it's late, would you let me know? I just need [...] It's okay if you don't, so don't make an exception or cut something short, okay?

I would like to preface this by saying that I love my job. It's incredibly rewarding and my students are honestly great. I've enjoyed the heck out of teaching them to conjugate verbs and all kinds of vocabulary.

That being said. Tomorrow is the last day of school and I am ready.

To really kick off the summer, I'm proposing a fun night out. Not just for educators! I'm extending this invitation to whoever sees this and wants to hang out with me for an extended period of time. Karaoke was a good time the last time we hit it up, so I'm further proposing this gathering to take place at the Pourhouse, tomorrow night. Have some drinks, eat some bar food, listen to some folks butcher classic songs. It's the best of times, really.

So, come! Hang out with me. It'll be fun.
