Age be damned, the woman playing Madame Hooch would have been a considerably better Tonks than the actual one.

Damn you, Hollywood! You always ruin my favorite characters!

First of all, friends list. Those of you who enjoy Harry Potter and haven't read shoebox_project, go read it. Now.

Second. Shananagin: part nine, where it's James, Sirius, and Peter in the minds of their animals but not actually their animals: Oh. my. God. BRILLIANT! I'm still laughing.

First of all, Harry Potter seven.

( REAL HP7 spoilers )

Right.

Had two very odd dreams last night. I told one to my mom this morning like an hour after I woke up, and now I can't remember it. In the other, I was sleeping on the top bunk in the basement at the lake house, with my cousin Min on the bottom, which I was, by the way, doing in real life). And Min woke me up (in the dream) and said, "A turle fell off your bed and landed in the back of my shirt!"

Yes. That's what she said. I spent a good ten minutes asking her if it was alive, and she kept saying, "Yes, it is, you twit!" And then I would ask her again, and again, and again...yeah. And then she said it was gross, like it was a spider, not a little turtle. I spent half the morning wondering if it had really happened before I realized how totally ridiculous it would have been.

Yeah. I'm an idiot.

Anyway, my cousins are in town, and we spent the weekend at the lake house. I finished HP7 and this WONDERFUL book by Cormac McCarthy called The Road, and it was great. Really. I highly recommend it.

And that was that. Have had some really interesting writing ideas, just saw Spamalot (which was fabulously funny, even a second time--"You're a fairy!" "No, that's Lancelot." *snerk*) and am now working on several other books to finish.

Later--
