Ay dios mio! Something has arrived from a far off land where the locals talk like Gloria Estefan!



Steps to Encountering and Taming the Elusive Miami Post: A Visual Manual

Step 1: Evaluate the beast so as to gain a better idea of the best method of attack.


(Pay no attention to holy!awful!mess behind the package... And yes--those are Snape action figures on the books!)

Step 2: Approach with caution, using no sudden movements, and remove the excess packing popcorn (Ms. Lopez, I'm beginning to suspect that you're rather fond of packing popcorn!).


Step 3: Choose your weapon of choice very carefully, so as to make the attack quick and catch the Miami Post off its guard.


Step 4: Find a calm, quiet place to keep your prey once your have successful wrangled it. Once in captivity, the Miami Post is a gentle creature and a true beauty to behold.


In other words... THANKS, DEEDEE! I LOVE IT! As usual, your art totally blows me away! :) I literally laughed out loud when I opened it! (I love the 'three wise asses' caption too by your signature!) This is, truly, magnificent work! I adore how you made me looking fearful at beholding baby Jesus! This will have to have a spot of honor! :)

Oh, and here's a blast from the past... Anyone who's been to my website at all in the past two years should recognize it:


My best friend, JG, blew up another one of my favorite Diana Lopez creations and made some embellishments and framed it for me for my birthday a couple years ago! (And yes, that is Adrien Brody on my desktop wallpaper--I can't help myself. 'The Pianist' is one of my all-time favorite movies, and he actually looks pretty much exactly like how I've always pictured canon!Snape. And yes, that is the Beck poster I got in Scotland last year for two quid when I saw him in concert.... the poster above is the Snape/Draco movie poster from PoA, although you can't really see it.)

AND JG and Deedee aren't the only ones who believe in Snapey celebrations. A few Santas in my life thought it would be fun to bring me Snapey gifts this year, too!

The Royal Doulton Snape figurine--a nice collector's item. :)


Snape's wand and Slytherin pen from the Noble Collection (the same pen, incidentally, that I sent to Deedee for Christmas.... even though I was tempted to keep it for myself! :P) I also got a Death Eater key chain from Hot Topic. Hurrah!

snape, holiday, presents
