Thank you to everyone who offered support and hugs to my self-pitying post the other day. ♥ Still struggling somewhat, but I've had a few better days lately. I ran 3 miles on the treadmill yesterday morning, the first 3-mile (~5km) run I've managed since I injured myself at the half marathon in early November ( Read more... )

I don't understand how I'm still so tired and feel like I'm lacking in time when it's summer vacation and nothing particular is going on, now that MiniPlu's party is over.

Last week was crazy-busy, though. ( Party preparation craziness )

First off: The Hardest HP Quiz Evar. I got a 96: Magical Prodigy (76-100): You've got fingers full of magic and a mind like a steel trap! Hermione has nothing on you.
