| 8:15 pm | I have never been an advocate of the phrase that 'children should be solely seen and not heard'. While I have no interest in the affairs that interest children, I do realize that many are more intelligent than given credit. They view the world with a mixture of blank pragmatics and curious naivity that is entertaining. To a point. Children, while insightful, are children. There is no room for them in a business meeting. Not even myself, who could sit for hours with a book, as a child had the patience for one. As an adult I barely have the patience for them. The only thing more irritating than little feet kicking at the back of one's chair are little sighs of boredom interrupting the flow of discussion every three minutes. Although, I have to admit to being impress at the boy's skill in aerodynamics. |

| 4:38 pm | I would like to give a formal thanks-to the Order is it?-for the great inconveniance you have created for civilians and businesses. As I typically do not have anything to do with my time, I took great pleasure in rearranging my entire business schedule for the following week. Meetings and trade agreements will have to be postponed until my associates and I have recieved information on the changes on long-voyaged apparation. Since I currently have a free spot on my schedule this weekend, I shall occupy my time by taking a page from your books and whinge about the injustices of life. Your lessons and advice on productivity never cease to astound me. [Private to Danica] Meetings have truly been postponed this weekend. Father, of course, is livid. I must say, I am actually sincerely grateful to the Order, for that bit of amusement. I am going to see him and then visit with Mother. Would you like to accompany me? [Private to Hestia] How is death treating you? You know what truly irritates me about this entire situation? What truly irritates me is despite all that has been said, all the lack of anything, and insistance in poor planning, I have insisted in giving the Order the benifit of the doubt. Among my associates in the Ministry and in oversea businesses. Constantly, without fail. With discrestion but despite it all, I have defended your Order's actions. |

| 11:17 pm | The arrangement in Ukraine took longer than I expected. Apparently all misunderstandings could be traced to a lack of filing paperwork. Distasteful business, filing paperwork. I have no patience for it. Nevertheless, in the pressing matter of business being done efficiently, one must be sure that the work is completed. The Steel Cauldron Manufacturer’s secretary had not saw it fit to properly file business contracts. It is my displeasure to disillusion those-either male or female-in search of occupation; however, the task of a secretary is not to sit and look pretty. If you dislike filing papers and you are willing to make the effort, do not expect to continue in the field. Of course, the person was fired. [Hexed Strongly Private to Hestia Jones] I would hope that you would have the sense to change locations. |

| 11:20 pm | I suppose it wouldn't do for me to put this off any longer. I had no idea that these existed; nevertheless, this thing is surprisingly masterful. I'd like to have a long talk with the man who invented this. I've been looking through this thing, by request of my mother, it's interesting to notice who actually owns one. And everyone playing so nicely together. Impressive. I suppose it'll be interesting of me to try the same. No man is an island and all of that. Cassius Saturn Vaisey, at your service. I am curious as to who I shall meet and become acquianted with there seems to be a wide array of potential intelligent and amusing conversation, things waiting to be said and debated. I look forward to it. |
