Network

I've decided my apartment is terribly lonely. Which is generally nice, but I'm a social creature at heart, and even when I'm reading or something, I'd still rather do it in company than on my own. So I've done something brash and exciting and got myself a kitten.

( Cut for image, warning: kitten. )

I've named him Bazin. It just came to me, though I'm not sure why, but there you have it. He's blind, so I've got all sorts of jingly toys. He's lively when he wants to play, but mostly he's content to curl up in a lap or on a warm spot on the carpet. And it gives me reason to constantly chatter, he likes to follow me around.

In any case, I'm smitten. I'm sorry to all the lovely ladies and handsome men, but my heart has been taken by Bazin and I don't think I'll ever get it back.

Wow that was a really vivid dream! Claire and I were living in this big...well it's kind of a closed off world called Cocoon. Like we're inside a big egg or something floating in the sky.

And everyone called Claire Lightning because she hates her name so that wasn't too different.

So that's what a broken heart feels like.

I killeds them. It was so easy. They thought it was him, but it was me. I tricked them. I don't like my dreams.

Mm. Fascinating. This place leaves me with the most interesting presents.

Oh, you'll want to see this toy that the OC left ever so thoughtfully on my bed this morning.

Dear friend, I seem to have acquired an object from my Dreams, it's probably too dangerous to play with but oh I find myself unable to truly avoid that.

Thank you, again, for helping me dispose of the bodies. They were causing quite a stink, weren't they?

I need some advice. How does one know if another woman is interested in the same thing as yourself?

And initiate things in a manner that's not profoundly embarrassing.

Wouldn't you know that during my vacation I'd have my phone stolen by some russian spy bitch punk ass kid.

If you know me and you get any phone calls or text messages from my old number, ignore them and don't answer. I had it disconnected this morning but you never know what people are capable of accomplishing these days with technology.

Given things lately, I've made some decisions for myself. Along with that, I spent the past few days at the archery range. I've really missed this.

How's everyone fairing after all the craziness of last weekend?

Hi everyone! I'm Charlotte. Chuck. Whatever you want to call me, I don't mind (as long as it's Charlotte or Chuck, I mean, let's not try and get creative). I just moved here a month or so ago - how about that volcano, huh? It was so cool scary. Glad it's done, though.

I've been so busy getting into work that I haven't really had any time to see what's all out there in Orange County, or meet any people my own age, and someone mentioned they heard about this network, so here I am. :) So. What's all there out in there in Orange County? Besides Disney - which I really want to check out sometime.

If anyone is experiencing any chest pain or difficulty breathing after the Volcanic Ash incident in February, please don't hesitate to come to Irvine General and get checked out. We're doing free clinics all this week to diagnose any lingering complications from the trouble with the air quality.

Not exactly what I was expecting for my first dream.

Yes, yes, it is true. I am retiring from acting and moving into directing. It is something I have been thinking about for quite some time, and I am very pleased with my decision.

I am also off of the market! Dating suits me, I think. Be quiet, Maia.
