Pounding My Fists On The Ground I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE'S A NEW BOOK IN THE INKWORLD SERIES CORNELIA FUNKE

Hello. Update.

Still in Germany but will be leaving in a few days.

Fourcast owes me more than $20 for the past two months.

All told I'm gonna be traveling for like 16 hours straight.

Okay I've slept off my edible and double-checked with 4CL. I am actually flying to Germany early July for work. God gives His silliest clowns His funniest battles.

Okay so. Good Omens.

I will continue out of spite. If anyone wants to take me out that badly, they will have to get their hands dirty and do it themselves! If they wish me miserable, they will have to wipe off my Joker smile with their own two hands!

Crying sobbing throwing up falling over @lem0ngh0stt DREW ME AT WORK!!! :'))))) he captured the chaotic nature of my desk and my love of pins and sparkling water. He even threw in my cat, Hypnos, though unfortunately she does not often accompany me to the lab. Anyway I love this and my friends :]

work photos from the Lab :)!

These are all from a few days ago now.

Intern group photo with our bosses (something something this totally doesn't look like it was taken against our will; also this isn't everyone because as always 4CL has scattered us across many countries and continents for assignments). I think they may be putting this on the Lab's website or something? Still, I feel the most comfortable posting these with faces censored :).

Also I took my little digital camera into the actual lab with me and got some fun pics (while I totally wasn't procrastinating my work). Some stuff had to be blocked out before I was permitted to post, but I still think they're fun!

Do not ask what the thing covered in caution tape is. I have no idea. It was there before I got here, and will probably still be there after I am gone.

So yeah! I got called into the Lab very out of the blue (like, morning-of - probably so the interns that are still posted in the area could all be together??) and while the abrupt commute wasn't the most fun thing in the world, I ultimately enjoyed being around my coworkers and being productive for at least the day. Afterwards we got lunch (sans the bosses - too busy doing boss stuff to hang with us little guys) and it was honestly very refreshing. I gripe about the Lab from time to time, but honestly it's at time like these that I'm ultimately glad I have this position because I've befriended some pretty cool people and seen and done some pretty cool things.

MAKING ART!!!
