We just got notified that one of our employees was arrested last night as a suspect in the fires. Apparently he had been using a fake name this whole time.

I don't know any more than that, but that's really freaking scary. I just wanted to see if everyone was okay / had heard?

Um, I know not a lot of people are probably even up right now... but is that the bonfire that's still going out west, or is something else on fire?

Thank you all for the gifts! The baked goods and pierogi are much better than the food they have here, and the sweater is very comfortable. Such a bold pattern. I have a lot to read now, too, which is really great since the books they put in the room are a little sub par. I really appreciate you all thinking of me. It was very sweet. :)

I hope you are all doing well and I will see you soon.

Thank you,
Ryan

PS: Bishop, I'm sorry the moonshine didn't work out.

I have such a light schedule today, with only some afternoon meetings scheduled, that I decided to read the book club book this morning. With it still raining outside I stayed in my pajamas and under the comforter all morning. Can't remember the last time I did that.

For those of you unaware, tomorrow's bookclub selection is The Great Gatsby. I read it for English class when I was in high school, but that seems like a lifetime ago, so it was quite a treat to read it again. I hope it will be added to the new GED curriculum, if it's not in it already, because it's a classic for a reason. All of the imagery, from Doctor T.J. Eckleberg's watching eyes to the green light, it really helps give the story a deeper meaning. I look forward to discussing it tomorrow with my fellow bookclub attendees.

omg it's RAINING. like, actual real rain. not a single blobby horror falling from the sky as far as the eye can see. i mean, god, remember how much that sucked? i never thought i would be so happy to look at rain and not have to worry about whether the landscape outside was about to turn into an infectious wasteland, but let me tell you I AM THRILLED TO PIECES ABOUT IT.

if it's still raining when i get home from school this afternoon, i am totally going to go out in the backyard and just ... idk stand out in a for a while and really really appreciate how normal it all is.

Hey. You awake?

Looks like we're going to have to start emphasizing that we're the first food service business in Austin. And that we serve more than just sugar.

And here I thought Austin was supposed to be civilization. I'll reserve my impressed gasps for when I get a classroom and students.

I've talked to a few of you about starting a book club here in Austin, and we'll be able to begin meeting at the Lending Library at the beginning of next month. With this in mind, I've been looking for a book to discuss. To my great chagrin, the only books available in bulk in the local bookstores (enough for us to begin a book club, I mean, quantity-wise) is Twilight. I guess no one really wanted it for their shelters back before things changed.

The next book we'll be reading, if you want to order it from the catalog, will be The Great Gatsby. But if you want to do something with your free time now, we have several copies of the first Twilight book available at the Lending Library for anyone who wants to pick it up. Maybe we can hate-read that one.

Here's a word of advice from Dr. Singh to all of you. Don't wait to secure housing. Don't bet on the super nice, really tastefully decorated penthouse you had before the whole crawler catastrophe to still be standing when you're ready to move out of your room in the hospital. Hallmark lied to us, those bastards. You can't always go back home.

Oh, and if anyone is feeling adventurous, has some time on their hands, and wears a ladies size 2, feel free to poke through the rubble that was once my apartment building for some couture circa 2015. Hey, it isn't looting if you have my permission, right?

I need an explanation now for why your gang held up our truck, stole our supplies, and injured my best friend.

Hello! Olivia told me to get in contact with you all regarding a food truck potentially coming to LBJ tomorrow. My name is Violet, my partner Ryan and I have a truck where we make burgers. We're in the Greenbelt today but can be anywhere tomorrow and LBJ was suggested.
