life is for living, not merely existing.

This time ten years ago, I was busy trying to figure out where all my school things were as I was about to get on the Express for the first time the next day.

...I'm old. When did this happen?

Day #2 at No-Longer-20-Anymore:

I'm awake. I'm old now but I'm awake. And hungover. This feels a lot like being 20, actually.

I'm tempted to ask someone to blast me into oblivion before I start to  wrinkle and look ridiculous, but someone might actually think I'm serious these days.

If we wanted to speak to the wizarding world at large, what would we say?

I'm heading out with Marlene tonight to do some damage. If you Non-Responsible-Father-Mother-Types want in, best say so now.

I am never drinking again. Nobody ever give me anything alcoholic ever, no matter what I say. I don't understand why we can't make potions taste better, especially ones you'd need to take as much as painkilling or hangover cures. There has to be some way for it to taste less like something grown by a mad herbologist then pissed on.

Much as I hate to be the the person to say it, while it's horrible, you don't reckon what happened to Eddie and his brood was a distraction, do you?

In addition to being a warning and probably fishing for reactions to see who said what when it was announced. Which reminds me, has anyone been overly callous about it or just not cared at all? All I've seen are the obligatories, no strong reactions outside of our own done privately.

Are you alright? Are you secure?
