Eve had rapidly come to the conclusion that she needed a damn vacation, preferably while it was still actually summer. Between school -- not that she remembered where she was in school without having to stop and think about it, a sure sign that her brain was too overworked -- and work, she was kept entirely too damn busy for her liking ( Read more... )

For once, Eve wasn't worrying about school or work or family or any damn thing. It was a nice change. Granted, it would only last until the next catastrophe at work -- real or imagined, given that some of her employees were a bit on the high-strung side -- but it was a nice change nonetheless ( Read more... )

Eve's day had been a long one, full of dealing with idiotic customers and even more idiotic staff. Especially the guy who'd been working for her for two years who'd jacked up a customer's order so badly that the customer had threatened to sue. Never mind that the woman had been ridiculously high maintenance throughout the entire photography session ( Read more... )

Eve hadn't been able to get hold of Savannah, which worried her only for a second until she looked out the window and had that overwhelming urge to start flailing. Um, hi, getting out of town nao, and that was her only concern ( Read more... )

Eve had just pulled the longest shift ever -- or what felt like it, at least -- and now she was happily curled up on the couch with her favorite alcohol and her favorite trashy television show.

It was a good evening. A peaceful evening. She liked those evenings.

She didn't have nearly enough of them.

[It won't be peaceful for long! Open for ( Read more... )

Eve was of the opinion that homework was ass. She hadn't liked it the first time she'd had to do it, and she hadn't liked it when she was at Fandom, so why the hell was she going to like it now that she was a business major ( Read more... )

Things occurred to Eve at the most random of times, like when the fact that her boyfriend was from fifteen years in the past and a universe to the side or so occurred to her in the middle of the kata she was going through ( Read more... )
