I got an owl yesterday! I am so late getting this together. But I am sick and trying to count muggles as a job! Have you ever tried to count muggles? They are EVERYWHERE! But anyway I got my owl from Chysta the Cursed and WOW everyone - It's so much fun! Pictures will go up on tomorrow. Thanks Chrysta! I love everything!

Passover...

So there is no yummy delish food after passover. I guess we aren't even suposed to talk about it. But I had this WONDERFUL pasta with chicken and a homemade white sauce that was FANTASTIC. I also want steak. And potatoes with cheese and sour cream. I am sooooo hungry.

I am off to find some unsalted crackers to snack on. :P

My Swap Kit!!!

Seriously, Chrysta the Cursed is not so cursed. She spoiled me ROTTEN!!!!

I received: Pattern Tamers *squee for pesky lace patterns*, wonderful Kramer Sterling Yarn in Slytherin Green and Silver *love*, a beaded Dragonfly broach, a pretty beaded bracelet in Slytherin colors, a felted notions bag, Divine Chocolate, mini sharpie, glitter pens, a very cool knitter's journal, Brittany Birch DPNS and a GORGEOUS handmade bag!!!

Pictures are below!!! Chrysta, you rule!!!

Slog slog slacker...

I am in the slog. You know that place where it's the same crap just a different pile? Yeah. I am dragging myself out of it and so far so good. My partner's package is coming along and will go out during the early hipping period via my sweet owl Pyrrhus. I will get it done or so help me I will be fined for using magic in front of Muggles. :p

I hope that Quidditch will go our way this time. But I think we can still stave them off. Color me hopeful. I suppose that is enough snark for today.

Don't you hate it when people get cheeky with you? I mean how many times can one ask a question and not get an answer but get snark? Been dealing with that all week! But on the bright side, my potions is getting MUCH better. I love it. Mixing seemingly random things and getting wonderful potions that make babies sleep, make you feel full when you've eaten nothing, and the list goes on.

I am still knitting away on my partner's package. I do hope that she will love it. It is fun putting it all together.

More soon.

Okay so this week has been NUTSO! Everyone is on spring break here and I am the official chauffeur. I keep forgetting stuff like our house quiz and Quidditch. Dos anyone realize that I am still dealing with classes and such?(seriously brain fried) Just wanted to say I am sorry I slacked this week. But I am around and taking pictures this week of my swap partner's package contents... And working diligently to get it out. Early.

I am off to figure out the house quiz... cover me will ya?
