Randomness
Dad had a brain fart earlier tonight. I asked him to hand me the remote control just as the phone rang. He picked up the remote and said "Hello?" XD LMAO! He realized what he had done immediately, of course, and felt really stupid. I, of course, mocked him mercilessly. ;)
Then, as Mom was washing down the walls in the entryway, she was talking about how she was tired of the same two gold candle sconces that have been on that wall since we moved in.
MOM: "I don't know what else I'd put up there, though..."
ME: "Well, we could hang up huge portraits of ourselves there, like there were when we moved in. Er, I mean, there weren't portraits of us when the other people lived here...that would be really creepy." o_0
ROTFL! I have no idea what that amused me as much as it did.
To clarify, when the realtor first gave us a tour of this house the previous owners had not moved out yet, and on the wall in question there were huge framed photographs of them and their two little kids. But the way I said it at first made it sound like these total strangers we bought the house from had portraits of my parents and I on their walls. Which would be extremely creepy and bizarre. LOL!!!
Way. Too. Amused.
Er...yeah. My brain is a very strange place.
To further prove that statement...I just had a bit of a brainstorm about the Severus/Petunia ship.
Some have theorized that perhaps Petunia also has (or had) magical talent. Suppose then that Petunia once attended Hogwarts and then, for some reason, renounced magic and returned to the Muggle world, pretending it never happened. What if, while at Hogwarts, she met Snape? Maybe he broke her heart and she left the wizarding world forever, and settled for Vernon?
I've always thought of this ship as a "current time frame" thing, with Petunia leaving Vernon for Severus, but what about pre-Vernon? Young Petunia and young Severus? An interesting concept, to say the least!
Not that Lily/Severus isn't still my OTP in the HP world, but it's fun to think about other possibilities sometimes. ^_^
