Unfortunately onThe Vampire Diaries, death is the probable outcome for nearly every character who passes through our universe.

However, we realize we may have unintentionally offended as we sent this couple to meet their tragic fate.

And now, heres Damons Diary:

Hello, Brother…

I mean, hello Friday people… Its Ian and for sure a bit of Damon typing here.

This time was a bit different.

No more bookending the episodes with the flash forwards; we will stay right here.

Yep, much like in life, those two major things are time and money.

Kind of like life, right?

Then once you get it (hopefully on time), you have to study it intimately.

I figure if he does it, then it must work.

The amount of information that the office staff processes in one day is incredible.

Its like its own little City Hall, with its own set of rules and utilities.

Or at least attempt to be.

It means the world, and I hope you enjoyed it.

@katteachart asked: What has been the most surprisingly eye-opening experience with being a director?

@somrhwlder asked: I have almost no time, and I only go to school.

How do you have time to be an actor, director, and run ISF?

I have the best partner in the world, and she keeps me going!

Lots of natural immune stimulants, vitamins, and meditation.

@yarosnikulina asked: What was the hardest scene that youve done in all seven years?

Episode 14 of Season 2.

Its when Damon is lying in the road, and the girl Jessica pulls up.

It was such a cathartic scene for me to shoot.

Its all about survival, man, but as youve mastered, its also all about being happy.

Spreading happiness and hope around is a gift that you give us all.

Im grateful that youre on this earth.
