[Someone has recently spent several days out of phase and is still being a complete motormouth to make up for it.]

So autumn's really kicked it into high gear, and I was thinking that this'd be an awesome time for a bonfire on the beach. Something like the beginning of Jaws - only. Y'know. Minus the 3 ton killer shark. Thaaaaat was a terrible example. Like Pajama Party, without aliens. Um. OK. That one sucks too. There's aliens all over this turtle.

My retro movie knowledge is real limited guys. Is there a late night party in Beach Blanket Bingo? Read about it, haven't seen it. I've seen pictures of Annette Funicello though. She was pretty cute. Weird hair. She's not here, is she? A beach party with the queen of beach parties would be awesome.

So yeah. I was thinking maybe tomorrow night. Everyone's welcome. I'll bring the marshmallows. Everybody bring their own blanket and one thing to burn. I'd suggest we burn that iridescent paint, but then with my luck I'll get knocked out of this plane after my next shower and have to find another knick-knack with paint on it AND someone who knows Morse code. Again. Anyway. Attendees get two rules. We leave the beach and the ocean cleaner than we found them, and nobody mentions curfews.

Sound like a good idea to anyone else? I feel like I'm forgetting something.

Want a toasted marshmallow delivery if you don't turn up? [He puts both hands up and laughs.] Neutral location drop off. I respect privacy boundaries.

This is really just a check-in. But still serious on the sugar offer.

[Two OOC notes: 1. Sadly, I don't have time to put up a log for this tomorrow, but if anyone else wants to, feel free. 2. Bart is still under the after effects, wherein he does not remember Barry Allen. He is not aware of this.]

[It's been awhile since Bianca's made a network post, but here she is again.]

This is going to be on the long side, but I have a few announcements regarding the clinic to make, and then something regarding Thanksgiving. [If the clinic info doesn't keep people's attention, the thought of food certainly will.]

First off, the kedan are expecting winter weather and cold temperatures to hit us soon, and the Dr. Natu clinic [Even if Soranik isn't here anymore, it makes sense to keep calling it that] received vouchers for warm clothing. If you don't have the funds to purchase winter clothing like coats, especially if you're a new arrival, stop by our clinic here in Earth, [Directions to the building here, with a location ping] and pick one up.

Ours isn't the only clinic to get these vouchers, so if there's one closer to you, you don't need to make your way out here.

Second, once a week from this point onward, we're also going to be offering classes on basic first aid, what to do in case of medical emergencies, and general health classes, among others. These are open to everyone, including the kedan, and while we'll be charging for each class, it's to help fund the clinic and to pay for the supplies for the basic first aid classes. If you don't have any experience with first aid, I heavily suggest signing up, since we'll also be including a first aid kit with the first aid classes.

We'll also be having a full staff day on these same days. If you haven't had a physical or checkup recently, the full staff days would be the best time to get one, especially with cold weather approaching.

Finally, on a more personal note, since we had Halloween about a week ago, [Even if that went badly with all the disappearances going on] for a lot of us, that means that Thanksgiving is a few weeks away. I know not everyone celebrates it, and that not everyone has family or friends from where they came from here with them, but I want to invite everyone here to EA-1A for Thanksgiving dinner in three weeks if they want to join Jaime and me, and you don't have other plans.

If you decide to come, feel more than free to bring something along with you if you like for the table.

[Anyone who has CR with Jaime or Bianca would be getting a personal invite delivered in person for this by Jaime.]

[OOC:Most of the clinic information, besides the cold weather voucher bit, can be found here.

The forward dated Thanksgiving log can be found here.
