Never Never Land

The place to be today was definitely Sedero’s Restaurant for today it seemed that the entire town of Bishop Vale, well minus Taryn and Liselle managed to drop in. First Nadia turned up to do her sound check and spent the morning glaring at Chantal who spent the morning treating her like a waitress and I had to admit it was excellent to watch Nadia sprackle silently. Then a big surprise when Astrid Tahn came to lunch with Osric Jones but this should not have been surprising for two reasons; one is that Astrid used to be Lynx, I don’t mean she was Lynx in person I mean she used to be the local actress here. She started as a model and got picked up for a local soap and never left, the second reason is that since she had this huge affair with Jago and had Zizi she would have known Osric through that being he and Jago are best buddies. I know that Astrid makes Taryn very nervous because she is one person who could fill her shoes as the premier hostess of Bishop Vale, a title that has a lot meaning for these meaningless ladies.

Liselle could have filled the role of premier hostess easily but Liselle doesn’t seem to relate to the real world very well and the Dubois clan are not exactly considered hospitable. I can’t imagine her actually welcoming people and the thought of having to go to parties in the Dubois compound makes you feel like you have been invited around to be sacrificed to some ancient god of theirs. Astrid is very entertaining and converses about everything under the sun and I think people like to be around Astrid as she has a lot of sparkly charm. Zizi on the other hand will sit there smouldering and silent, which is funny because she has pale white blonde hair and Liselle who has darkish hair is the icy one, this town can’t even get their stereotypes right.

Jojo stayed around today either because of my threats or he wanted to gawk at Astrid so I told him he should put down gawking as his alternate profession because every time a beautiful woman comes in that seems to be all he can do. He just grinned and said I was jealous that he was not gawking at me so I threw back I would rather have Gervais gawking at me than some idiot boy who wears two different combat uniforms at once. The patterns on his clothes give me a headache in general but today he is wearing green camo as trousers and brown camo as a shirt. I think his mother should take him someplace dark and beat him with a wooden spoon for he really looks ridiculous.

I was about to tell him when Nadia came in to glare the glare from hell at Astrid and I guess she would have liked to have cornered Osric Jones during lunch but after her little spat with Lynx I think she is being more discreet. Jazz came in during lunch and kept looking at me the way that someone looks when you know they want to tell you something, I bet she was waiting for idiot boy to do his usual absconding but for once he stuck around. I managed to drop a stool on my foot and it hurt so much it brought tears to my eyes and idiot boy went all funny which was alarming, maybe he was afraid I would sue him or blame him. He ran all about getting ice and making a fuss so I told him to go climb a mountain as his leaping about was annoying which made him get all miffed and then called me impossible to please! I know exactly what would please me, the entire Dubois family emigrating to Siberia, Royce Vanderhaven to notice I am alive, Mother to live in the real world, and this awful job thing to finally end so I could go back to my real life and my real friends.

Tiah and Coco appear to go off doing everything together claiming I am unreachable, which is a blatant lie as I do own a phone and I do answer it. Unless idiot boy gets to it first and starts doing monkey noises, making me think maybe someone should put Elyce onto Jojo as a taste of the Dubois attention would straighten him out quick smart! In the end Jazz never got to talk to me and Nadia never got to talk to Osric, Astrid got to talk to everyone and Chantal kept Tony far away from Nadia and Astrid, Jojo never shut up and Royce never called. It seems that today I lived in never-never land!
