Karla was often surprised by random deliveries when she walked into work on Mondays. Snowglobes, new supplies, giant metal chickens... Usually when she found herself in the middle of a surprise shipment of new stock, her emotions ranged from confused to flabbergasted to simply resigned ( Read more... )

Kenzi now felt she had to do a Greek theme, having met her employer. So the mannequins were now wearing togas, lounging around in Roman party style. With bottles of champagne bubble bath in every hand.

Overall, Karla's Parents' Weekend had been a good one, even if Julian had decided to inflict his personality on everyone by visiting, too. But the overall pleasantness hadn't really been enough to counteract some of the less than pleasant aspects of the weekend ( Read more... )

It had been a decent week; after saying goodbye to the group Aphrodite had stayed to play in Disneyland for a day before returning home to Fandom ( Read more... )
