Simday 16

Engagements are now a full-blown trend in Sunrise Falls. Congratulations to Adam and Magdalena, and Tom and Clarisse! Who knew the latter couple was even back together?

Eyewitnesses reported that Clarisse appeared surprised when Tom popped the question at The Cutting Edge, the site of their first date. (Maybe she should have been suspicious when he invited her to an ice skating rink in late spring?) Tom declined to speak to the Sunrise Falls Sun following the proposal, but rumor is that he's been finding his debauched lifestyle unfulfilling of late.

In employment news, as with the rest of the nation, Sunrise Falls's job market has been marked by ups and downs.

Jed's career finally seems to be on the rise, as he was awarded a post-graduate fellowship to conduct research in the field. He's looking forward to his work, although he did use part of the grant money to reward himself with an electric guitar.

On the other hand, Vik's roller-coaster relationship with Sun & Sons, LLP took yet another dip, as a poor judgment call landed him back in the filing room.

The decrease in Srinathaphan family income, coupled with their recent home renovations, has made Naomi even more determined to work on her job skills, despite being in her second trimester. Also on maternity leave but not necessarily maternity rest: June, whose husband, Nick, recently quit his teaching post at Sun City Elementary to man the desk as Sunrise Falls PD's new sergeant.

"I've been worried about the burglary spree that's been plaguing our neighborhood for a while," Nick explains. "With a couple of little ones on the way, including in our own family, I think Detective Hamilton and the SFPD could use all the help they can get."

(On a perhaps unrelated note, Erica's fiancé, Isaac, was recently seen behind the wheel of a vehicle leaving Sun City Bank shortly after an alarm call.)



We conclude this Simday's report with Angelique's unusual day off. She was awakened by nausea, and after making a mess in the bathroom, made a mess in the kitchen just trying to make an omelette. Hungry and tired all day, she fell asleep in her bowl of chili con carne later that evening. We wish her the best and hope whatever bug she has isn't contagious!
