Squeeeeeeeeee!!!

Tonight is the coven Equinox celebration, which is likely to be small since about half the coven is either sick or otherwise engaged. I decided to make the couscous dish that Lakshmi used to make, and which I am making from memory. Really, how hard is it to mess up couscous? I made a quick run to the store because I decided that I didn't have ( Read more... )

They're going to make the 7th book into two films. Which, cool, two films instead of one; but a longer wait for the conclusion. I'm glad they're doing it right, though, instead of cutting out huge chunks of story like they usually do.

Neil Gaiman has interesting things to say about the whole JK Rowling - Dumbledore thang. He's got a good point. The reader doesn't need to know every little thing about every character, especially if it has nothing to do with the story.

JK Rowling admits something that a lot of us suspected: Dumbledore was gay. I did think that young Albus was rather taken with Grindelwald. How tragic that his great love turned into his mortal enemy!

Wow, the weekend's nearly over already. It was lovely to not have to go to work today. I finished HP#7 a little while ago, and it's just starting to sink in that there will be no more. I want more! I want to know what happens to Neville and Luna, and George, and even the Malfoys. I cried again in all the same places. I was wondering, as I was ( Read more... )

That would be nice, wouldn't it ( Read more... )

Who would've thought it'd be a relief to be at work today? After the stress of the weekend, it's kind of nice to be back to a routine. I love my family, but they drive me batty sometimes. Especially in a car on a long drive when we're all tired. Thank the gods I didn't have to go all the way to Canton with them. (I'm sure I drive them batty as well ( Read more... )

I finally finished reading the last Harry Potter. Man, that is weird to say.

( don't read if you don't want to know )

Here's how I re-entered the mundane world: I went to B&N and bought Harry Potter 7, then went to the theatre and saw Harry Potter 5. I'm just wild about Harry. *g*

So, guess what I'll be doing tonight?
