a day late and a galleon short
Well, we had our first official meeting of the teaching staff yesterday afternoon. Albus, in his optimistic nature, decided to seat Sirius Black in the next chair at the table.
I do not understand what he hopes to gain from this. Black and I will never be on friendly terms. It is rather difficult to get over someone trying to kill you.
Of course he would end up being innocent of betraying James and Lily Potter. Albus decided that a small welcoming party was in order. I did try to make my excuses, but Albus would not hear of it. Each of the staff were gently advised to bring a welcome to Hogwarts gift for Sir Martyr.
I did try to select a gift that was worthy of such a man. I chose something that reminds me of the honorable and thoughtful man that is now a fellow Hogwarts professor. Being of Sirius Black's acquaintance over the years has given me the advantage of choosing a perfect gift.
I was fortunate enough to get the order in on time. The package arrived barely ten minutes before the meeting (i.e., mandatory party) began. To any that suggest that I am stingy or self-centered, I would remind them that this collar is made from the finest Italian leather and is spelled to repell fleas as well as scabies. How much more practical and thoughtful can you get than that?
