If anyone wondered where I was the past few days, I was in Orlando- I went with my mom and two of her friends to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios.

What would you do if you wanted to make it clear, perfectly clear, that there is such a thing as wizards ( Read more... )

Harry Potter needs a damn cell phone. You guys, how the fuck can wizards survive without telecomm? Honestly. There is NO MAGIC EQUIVALENT. I wanted to have a tip sent to the Ministry, which in reality would be easy- phone call, bam. But I can't do it without instant communication so I'll have to think of something else.

My parents, brother caffeinatedalex, and friends Jill and Scott came and helped out. We loaded the Uhaul in about 3 hours and unloaded it in about 1. I think we set some kind of ( Read more... )

Except, you know, not.

Thanks to theemdash and morningstar4. It is delightful.

PS Almost everything in my apartment is in a box now. Two days! Yay!

Addendum! After reading this other post on that blog, which made me giggle hysterically, I've determined that this person is just delightful in every way.
