The beach- Monday afternoon

[throughaphase]

Kitty hadn't been to the beach since that time she'd been a mermaid, which was just wrong. When you lived right by a beach, you should be taking advantage of it, early and often. She'd gone down there with the intention of at least getting in the water, but for some reason the meta for Jaws theme kept going through her head and making her feel like maybe that might be a bad idea.

Instead she was laying out on the sand, telling herself that if she brought a book (which was in her bag and not being read but whatever) it wasn't really courting skin cancer. She'd have to figure out how to hide tan lines when getting dressed for work on Tuesday, but she'd worry about that then.

[26 invoices today. The SP is not that S. Open!]

Devil's Nest, Monday, 8/13

[bitten_notshy]

There was a large pot of deep green-and-pink Venus fly traps at one end of the bar when Jack got into work today, and to his eyes they looked hungry. He briefly considered going to the kitchen to scope out some raw meat to feed them, but decided the wiser course was to leave them where they were. Instead, he went to add Derek to the employee rolls, keeping one eye on the new greenery.

It turned out to be the right choice. Tiny got very involved fussing over the plants as soon as he came in. Jack could swear he heard actual cooing, as well as a snatch of a lullaby. He decided not to be disturbed by bartenders with carnivorous plants for pets -- at least, not until the plants got much larger.

Caritas, Monday

So... the Olympics had been a thing that happened. Yep. That was for sure.

Not that Jake had really been paying attention.

In any case, though there was no swimming, gymnastics, or track and field to be found on the TV in the back room, there was... hockey?

Specifically, the San Jose Sharks' 2011 Stanley Cup run. Yep.

Magic Box, Monday

[harpy-daughter.livejournal.com]

Quite honestly, there normally wasn't much to do at the Magic Box. It wasn't like Surreal got many customers, and the others tended to keep a sharp eye on inventory and making displays.

And since she was bored...Surreal had grabbed the small tv from the back room and had it set up on the counter. At the very least, she should be able to find something to mock.

Imagine her glee to find an entire television station playing little movies about fish eating people! This was possibly better than trying to navigate the youtubes! She didn't need 'keywords' or things!

Now to find where Tara stashed the snacks this week...

[OOC free & totes open.]

Cafe Luke's, Monday

[gastronomistic]

Vincent wasn't generally much one for TV, but he had gotten into the habit of putting a little something on while setting up the Cafe for the day. Usually he went for a nice cheesy talk show, but today, it seemed like all the channels were playing nature documentaries.

Vincent knew a good theme to roll with when he saw one.

Today's specials
Vegetarian shark fin soup*
Seared black-pepper crusted ahi tuna steak
Spicy Maryland crab dip
Carrageen chocolate jelly
* No endangered shark species were harmed to create this dish!

Luke's was open.
