Sweet Dreams - Jewel |

I'm both excited and nervous for the movie tomorrow. Whether they screw it up or not, though, I very much enjoyed rereading the book. I may even have enjoyed it more than when I first read it. Dumbledore is just indescribably cool.

I love Jon Stewart. This clip is so good. He hit the nail right on the head. I actually really agreed with the guy he's talking to in this episode until this clip. The guy, Mike Huckabee, wrote a book called Do the Right Thing, he talks about treating people the way you want to be treated, he supports self-governing, and then he argues that we shouldn't allow same-sex marriage because it would change the definition of marriage. Really? Wow.
Anyway, this entry is not meant to rant. I just wanted to point you in the direction of this clip, because it's awesommmme. Jon Stewart makes so many good points, and he makes them calmly and succinctly.

Aaaand the school dreams begin. Four in one night? How annoying. Though it did feel good to wake up and remind myself that there are no exams or projects that I have to do right now. Absolutely none.

So there's this guy who makes jewellery named Christophe Poly. He comes from Montreal, apparently, but he sells his stuff at our local art show. I'm making a post about his jewellery because I love it, and thought I'd promote it a little. It's so innovative. He uses aluminum, brass, rubber, and acrylic.

Dear Julia,
I don't really know how to tell you this, but our horoscope doesn't match. I think I realized it when you put cuffs on me at the mental hospital and I saw you knock out my avocado plant. I'm sure you're man enough to understand that I get turned on by garbage men. I'm returning your Darth-Vader poster, your false teeth, and your old lottery coupons to you, but I'll keep your suicide note as a memory. You should also know that I get sick when I think of our friendship.
Greetings to your freaky family,
Megnut

"A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people."
Thomas Mann (1875 - 1955)
Not positive I agree, but it's interesting. It does seem to fit my current state of mind.

I bought a paid account! ♥ And it took me a while, but I finally narrowed it down and filled all my icon slots. And uploaded them grouped by fandom/subject (with the exception of a few). *geek*
So go take a look! It'll probably change, but I'm happy with it for now.

I wrote 8k words today. Finished at 52,420 words, two hours earlier than last year. I'm even starting to like the story I wrote. Maybe I will edit it after all.
Edit: Oh, also, I am finding out that I apparently can't end anything tragically. Ever. I am addicted to positive spins.

I'm sorry, brain...you've melted and exploded so many times this weekend because I'm a masochist for reading comments.
This is the comment that did me in (the bolding is my doing):
"you know what..i think laura mallory has reason this time...and im actually beginning to see things from her point of view. and dont ask me why im here if i dont like harry potter cuz i do..i just hate jkr. this is a harry potter fansite not a jk rowling one. just like every gay person seems to think this is aboslutely fantastic..most straight people have issues with it and think its absolutely outrageous. but i mean...all fans were under the impression that he was straight and now jkr brings him out of the closet...yeah people are gonna have problems and what about the little kids who read this. gay isnt normal and now kids are going to think it is...again this is my opinion so dont attack me for it."
Well, it's nice to see that someone took the time to interview every Harry Potter fan in the world about their orientation and opinions on the news. Oh, and also asked whether they thought Dumbledore was straight or not. And apparently the entire world was in agreement. Fancy that, eh? Apparently I'm not part of the world anymore (yay~!).
And of course, being gay isn't "normal". Because you know, other than that, Dumbledore was completely normal. Disregarding all the things I could say about the word "normal"...
I just...blarrrrrghle. My brain is so dead I just had to resort to sarcastic retorts to no one in particular. I fail, too.

Wow, another Harry Potter dream last night. This one took place in my grandmother's house. O_o Dumbledore's Army was fighting the other students on the Dark Side, and Hermione had decided that for some reason it would be best to stupefy Harry (which is whose PoV I was seeing things from). So he trusted her and she did, and then when he woke up he pretended to still be unconscious so he could listen in on things. I found it amusing how in-character it was.

This is the second night in a row I've had a Harry Potter dream. I think I've only ever had two HP dreams before this, and now two in a row. Strange. Anyway, last night's took place in a big hotel that I've dreamt about before (but that I don't think I've ever actually seen consciously). Lots of chaos happens in this hotel, it seems; this time, the Order of the Phoenix was fighting the Death Eaters. Tonks saved a dishevelled, broken Luna, and it seemed like they were together. Strange thing was, it seemed natural. Tonks/Luna, eh? I'm intrigued.
I will be posting my DH thoughts eventually. I just don't know when.

The Sirius Deception by Nicholas Hooper, who is love, despite not being JW |

This is it. Less than 24 hours. I can't believe it's finally here.
I won't be back online until I'm done and have registered it. The reading should not take long, but I can't say the same for the registering...

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love

Friendship bracelets are so full of double entendres.
Calisto's bracelet is suitably loose.
Callan's bracelet was easy.
Aleron's bracelet is thick.
And all of them are very knotty.
