Some Wizard I'm turning out to be.

[Private to: James, Miles, Neil.]
Last night I did an awful lot of thinking about what you said earlier, James - about fans (that sounds silly to say; I'd not really think of them as fans) of Ribbon protesting the Sebastian Han adaptation. The more I mulled it over, the more it seemed like something I would want to be involved in, or at least observe before I make any hasty decisions. So, I tracked down that website you were talking about, and I registered for their forum. Under a pseudonym, of course - at least, for now.
I'm going to watch the community for a few weeks, I think. If everything checks out, I might publicly support the website. After all, I'm scheduled for at least a half-dozen talk-show appearances for Coming Home; I can definitely mention the website in at least a few spots.
- Miles, I think (...) I might have a job for you, after all. I feel horrible even asking about this but - you... wouldn't happen to have retained any sort of magical ability, would you? I would only use it as a last res
- Miles, do you think there's a time I could talk to you in private? It's very important.
- Neil, forgive me for eavesdropping, so to speak, on your conversation with James' in his earlier entry - did you say Kilroy wanted the Ribbon project? I thought he was after that (...) Straw to Gold adaptation?

[Private to: Logan, Max, Katie, Theo, Edwina, James (again)]
I was meeting with my publicist this morning - and apparently, I've been offered a children's television show. I'm not really sure what to think about it. Quite frankly, I never know what to think about television. I told my publicist I would get back to him.

[Private to Edwina]
Hello Edwina! I don't think I ever properly thanked you for those wonderful cookies you sent me on the 14th - please accept my apology for my lack of punctuality. I was wondering if (...) maybe I could make it up to you by taking you out to see a show? A lot of the Oz tales are going to see Wicked, and a lot of them are bringing dates guests, and we're going to an early dinner - it would be my treat, of course, and I... well, would you like to come with me?

(Added a bit later.)
Earlier this week, I purchased a truck. I can't tell you how long it's been since I last drove one - actually, yes I can: the summer of 1999, when I briefly visited my parents over summer break. I'm converting it so it can run on vegetable oil, but now, my garage smells like the business end of McDonald's. I'm thinking of naming it Blue Plate Special.
Also, I can't help but echo Neil's earlier sentiments - please, if you haven't done so already, can you answer a few survey questions? I would be glad to conduct a few more interviews; and, as previously mentioned, you will be compensated for your time. Thank you very much!
