There are times when even logic

It seems I have plans this year for the holidays - I am finding myself looking forward to them more than I normally would.

Astoria love I have your gift for you....let me know when you want to get together for our exchange.

Wow....just....

To the Parkinson Family - if there is anything I can do to help...

When did our world go insane to this degree....?  Stella is Stella....she never did a thing to deserve this.  Ever.

To the Board of Directors: I will be unavailable tonight.  Any owls will be ignored till morning.  The merger is in the bag.  Suck it up buttercups.

It's been a nutters few weeks....Blaise, would you like to have dinner some night this week?  I promise that there won't be one owl about that blasted merger as it was wrapped up today.

Astoria - we need a girls day I think.  Send Marcus off to do - whatever it is he does - and it's my treat but the spa has been calling darling girl.  I made us appointments for this Saturday.

My condolences go out to all of those who have been attacked - this is getting far too frequent.  I am so sorry.

Blaise - thank you for a wonderful evening.  You were a lovely escort.

I would like to wish the newlyweds a wonderful life and Princess Clara was adorable - you are very lucky to have such a child in your lives.

Rita Skeeter still needs to die a slow death - honestly.  Or a hobby other than driving us all  batty.


Even if I do agree about Mandy - something just isn't right about that.  She was clearly out of place and clearly not seeing it.  Someone should remind her that there are fairytales for a reason - they never show what happens threeyears down the road when the differences are glaring and the sex has stopped.  The look in her eyes concerns me as well...  Where is Lisa when you need her.

The world is going to hell in a handbasket.

And why can't I my damned black Dior heels?

Out of everything I have done....and I have been a wild child.  The board always threw a hissy fit.

But lesbianism they are okay with.  Morons.

I am not having an affair with my best friend - while she is adorablt - just....NO.

Now to go point my wand at some older idiots on the board who seem to have reverted back to 9 years of age.  I don't know if I get paid enough to deal with this idiots.

Wy do I have the feeling that my dear best friend is plotting...  me thinks I know you too well Astoria.

However our shopping trip did leave me with many new shiny purchases.  Some of which I can even even use for work.  How I love meetings where people blink when they realize that I actually know what I am talking about - that never gets old by the way.

Now to find a hat.....

Astoria.....want to do drinks and happy hour at some point soon?  I can meet you after work some day this week?  I have some gossip that will make you laugh at the silliness of people.

And I have something for you - I swear these shoes are just MEANT to go withtaht blue dress you bought the last time we went shopping.

How did the world go so nutters?  I swear what ever higher power is looking down on us shakes their head and sighs alot.  Because....well...nutters.

Astoria....can we talk soon?  You said you had smetin to talk to me about then I was in board meetings or sleeping.  I am sorry sweetie.

I need to get some of my life back from teh boardroom.

Three take overs and a partridge in a pear tree later....I am fully at the helm of one of the five family businesses.

...

This feels strangely exhilerating.

 

Astoria - if you need to talk more just let me know mkay?

I did it.  I got control of one of he companies the same way my father did at my age - hostile take over.  I don't think he has ever been as proud as he was the other day.  Show him that i am a Dobbs.  Anyway, I am now te CEO of the two clothing lines we own.  One based in Milan the other on the French Riviera.

I think I deserve a night out to celebrate.

I don't know what amuses me more - the fact that tey seem to think that Krum - arguably one of the best players of his generation - had to fake his way to the top.

Or that there is still so much interest about certain things.  Like Whether or not a certain best friend of a princess is pregnant.  So what if she is?  If I had her boyfriend I wouldnt mind.

Honestly - who cares if Bell is whatever she is.  Is she happy?  Is she causeing herself or other's harm?  Then leave her alone to do as she likes.

Honestly people - get out and live a little ad you might find your own lives are a bit mroe interesting.

Take that old men on the board of directors.....I knew I could seal that new merger.  And I even got out of the board room without a lecture on my temper, my attitude or my lack of self perservation.

I think this is a record for me honestly.

Back in the country.  It was a good time to travel.  I even managed to get a merger that my father hasn't been able to seal.

That is what happens when you are innovative and a bit more ruthless Daddy mine.

Lady Pansy Parkinson

Whenever works for you Lady Parkinson, I would be available for tea.

WHO: Emma Dobbs and Pansy Parkinson
WHAT: Emma sends a owl To Lady Pansy
WHERE: Respective Locations
WHEN: Monday morning between board meetings
RATING: PG - Emma can be a mouthy brat at times.

~Private~

So he is with that society twit.  Interesting choice - it makes sense and they are cute together.  I just hope that she has a spine somewhere in all that lady-like up bringing.  

~End Private~

Leaving the country for a few weeks at the end of the week.  I can't wait to get out of here for awhile.  It will do me good I think.

My father is worried about scandal - but oh well.  If that time at Carnival in Brazil didn't kill him I will be good to go in Greece.

...

So,  I have decided I loathe meeting where I am called 'the child'.  I am over 18 thank you very much.  If you have an issue with me I am right here.

I cant wait till I am in Greece and possibly Italy...

Anyone who is up for some mention of you in the tabloids feel free to join me.   How about it HRH Draco  - a belated birthday celebration without all the pomp and stuffiness?

And back into the board room I go...

It's been one of those weeks.  I hate board meetings  - the board is a bunch of good ol' boys who couldn't see a new idea if it bit them in their  over paid arses.  If they think I am letting them run my family's businesses into the ground they are all dimwitted.  I am my parent's daughter and there is more here than the party girl.

They can sit and spin if they don't like it.

I am thinking it's time to hit the Isles for a bit....blow off some steam.

Any takers?  I cant go till next weekend - I have a merger to sit in on this week and part of next.

Between meeting about my father's companies and trying to be what the boards want me to be and who I actaully am...

I think i need a vacation from reality for a bit.  MAybe I will go to some trunk shows in Milan.  I'ts been awhile sine I was in Italy...

I hear there is going to be an amazing party for HRH Prince Draco...now there would be an invite to score if I could.  But we will have to see what happens...
