An...announcement of sorts

I nearly posted this yesterday but with the day being what it was and of course, Snow Valley's good fortune, it just seemed out of place.

Anyway, I guess I should stop putting it off at this point.

In approximately one month, I'll be leaving the school and New York. I have an internship at UC Berkeley which will lead into a course of graduate study. I'll miss you guys, but heck, you'll do just fine without me.

In other news, does anyone want to help me with inventory on Saturday?

It will not be the same.

Well, you could always come visit. I'm going to be studying the San Andreas all summer.

Good luck, Lorna. Keep in touch, yeah?

Well, of course. I'm going to California, not a bubble dimension out of phase with reality.

...oh dear. I should probably knock on wood for that one.

There's a Hollywood joke in there somewhere.

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Yes, I suppose there is. Luckily (for certain values of luck) I'll be in Nor Cal, not So Cal

Faffing off to California for college is so 2006.

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Nonsense. That's faffing off to HAWAII. California is the new Hawaii.

[identity profile] x-forge.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Hawaii is not in danger of sliding off into the ocean, unless Explodo-Boy decides to take another semester there.

So what's your graduate study in?

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a slip fault. California isn't in danger of sliding into the ocean, just up to Alaska.

Geophysics. Also shopping.

Lighten up. "Explodo-Boy" is a much better nickname than "Boy Hostage".

and again I say HEY!

You do realize that this calls for copious amounts of food and drink, yes? I need to send off my almost-sister in style, after all.

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, let's see, turn down an excuse to party on someone else's dime or milk the opportunity for all its worth? Decisions, decisions....

Your life is so very hard, isn't it?

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It is. One long endless nightmare of being feted and adored.

[identity profile] x-wildchild.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
What's in it for me if I help with your counting and lifting and counting and not snacking on the food I'm counting because you'll throw spoons at me?

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I...ordered a couple new cases of that energy drink you people have been treating like its the fountain of youth? I'll give you first crack.

[identity profile] x-wildchild.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
DUDE. That stuff is good and it doesn't give me the bad poots. Sweet!

All these years, I've kept this secret and now you've forced my hand.

You do not want to go to grad school and you will also bake me cookies.

[identity profile] x-polarisstar.livejournal.com 2008-04-03 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
...Oh Betsy.

What sort of cookies?

[identity profile] x-psylocke.livejournal.com 2008-04-03 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
What? I think it's a rather spot on impression of the Immortal Sir Alec Guinness. Though considering context. Well perhaps, I should have indicated that I was waving my hand in front of the screen as I typed away. Though you're almost young enough to not have a clue what I'm talking about entirely. You know what, nevermind.

[WAVY HANDS] This is not the explanation you were looking for

Oooh, chocolate mint.

You're a special lady, you know that?

Chocolate mint it is.
