Like most everyone here, I am so, so glad to be myself again. Much fun as I had the few days I was a woman. Also, I have a very, very deep and newfound respect for women who wear heels on a daily basis. They are terrifying. Terrifying. Kudos.

In any case, I was on my into my room after a shower just now and saw what can only be described as the most amount of leather ever compiled in one place at one time. And I've seen a lot of leather at one time. These clothes, however, are amazing. Naturally I put on the whole get-up, because why woudn't I when I've got the hat sitting so near. It's alarmingly heavy and hot, but I think I look pretty good.

It comes on the heels of dreams, of course. The good news is, the woman we were helping got her baby back and the monarchy of France was saved. Then there was this rather lovely woman who wanted to educate young girls, so naturally she was accused of witchcraft. She rather fancied Athos, which was hilarious. We were at her trial and this other woman showed up that caused Athos to have a fit, we saved Cardinal Richelieu's life (and I say we but I was the one who carried him and went into responsive action). Also we saved the woman from being burnt at the stake. Though I gave her my cross from the queen to hold on to, to give her faith, and then of course the queen shows up and sees it. I think she was a bit jealous, to be honest with you. There's no good way this can possibly end.

Also. I have a lot of furniture and some stuff I don't need once I move. If anyone is looking for anything, let me know.

Never let it be said I can't make fun of myself.

Exhausted. Worn out. Beat up. But happy. Friday was a good night. I won. Even if I have some new cuts and a nice shiner. Ouch. I need a spa day and a massage. But hey, I won. It was harder than the last fight, but worth it.

Finally, it's June! My little brother graduates, there's birthdays, and my wedding, and then I get to go to Italy for my honeymoon!

First, I have to survive finals. :(

Snowday in June.

I had a boyfriend once that could do that.

So much snow! I've gone and built a few snow orcs and since I woke up with a heavy sword today, I'm lobbing their heads off! If only it were real.

Dear Orange County, California,

I'd like to write a complaint, notifying you that it is a fine time for a climate change personality crisis. You've made my commute this morning a veritable living hell. And it's not because I don't know how to drive in the snow, but because every tosser out there with car keys and a cellphone, can't figure out how to drive in it. Everything's gone all bumper cars and general stupidity, all over the place.

Do us a favour and die in a fire, which might happen considering someone so much as blinks the wrong way and one of those starts and burns down everything. Under normal circumstances, that is. Which even then is really quite questionable, because what's normal anymore?

In short, I can't raise these two fingers high enough.

Bloody California. Bloody climate change.

No love for you,

Pete

I was supposed to fly out this morning until this freak snowstorm hit. Now we've been delayed, and I've been sitting in this airport for the better of my morning.

If I'd wanted snow, I would have stayed in Boston.

Snow in June... in Orange County. This is new.

I know this is going to come as a surprise, but I have never, ever, gotten to run around outside in the snow and play with anyone. Not once in my life!

I'm going to go to one of the parks and see if I can start a snowball fight or build a snowman! And then probably get something warm to drink.

There's a nice park in Laguna Beach if anyone wants to join me!

Is this common for this time of year? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no, but it's pretty fricken cool.

Also, those dreams everyone apparently has. I think I might have had them. Like, at first everything was way normal. It was like dreaming about being back at boarding school again and bumming around Europe, right up until the point where I started dating super models. Because apparently being an Osborn in my dreams is waaaay more boss than being an Osborn in real life. Okay, but then, I dreamt about hearing about all this stuff going down in New York? Like. A guy dressed as a spider fighting this giant lizard or something? What even is that.

This may sound
I don't know if you
I know how the snow started
Does anyone know how to defeat a giant snow monster?

I need help getting back into my house.

I may or may not have gotten five of the dogs at work to carry me around sled dog style. Hey, they needed the exercise and I'm a lazybutt!

I think this is worse than the snow in December. If this frost kills everything we've recently planted then we're gonna have our hands full once this the ice is gone.

It would seem that I've not been returned to myself like everyone else has.

I wasn't planning on leaving the house today, anyway.

How unexpectedly cold! I've had to bundle up in a sweater and a big coat. This really belongs more in New York over the winter months, than it does here in southern California.

I get to pull my winter coats out of storage! This is an exciting day for me! Takes my mind off the most recent pony dreams I can't seem to shake

It's not possible to make something happen from the dreams, is it? Because in my dreams last night, I was ending winter in Ponyville my home world.

So of course, I'm the idiot that accepts a shitty apartment without a functional heater because, really, who needs a goddamn functional heater in California in June. Life, I have some beef with you. Some HARD beef with you.

I'm still pissed about my turkey leg too.

Pipes are frozen. No water's coming out. SO. My landlord can suck it while I stuff my trashcan with old newspapers and make a bonfire in my living room. And I'm cooking bacon on it.

'Least the weather is making my liquor frosty. My icecream too.



I may die tonight from liquor poisoning or high cholesterol. Better than freezing. Ugh.

Would there happen to be any jewellers on this board? Someone who's lived here for a long time? I have a somewhat ... unusual commission.

I've been told this is a fairly useful networking tool. As I've recently relocated to California, I should make use of it.
