evil is in the air

Things are starting to look very creepy around the neighborhood as everyone gets ready for halloween. I am doing one more trip into diagon alley for goodies for my spoiler then I should be all set.

halfway there

I can't believe this term is already half over. Although I am really enjoying the theme of this swap and the way the swap is working out, I do miss quidditch. I doubt I would have time for it even if we were playing this term. I have been continuing to work late nights/early mornings at the ministry. I think I have finally decided on an alternate handmade item for Cassie's kit. I am still not sure about it,but time is a wasting, I am going to try and get over to my fav yarn shop in diagon alley this weekend so I can get started.
I got a. New owl that comes with me to the ministry which I hope will help me communicate for the rest of this term.

Home WORK!!!!

wow this week is hard! I think they shouldn't let the Ravenclaws assign the homework anymore! I haven't read this book as much as the others mostly because it is too dang sad. I am going to have to use my Slytherin skills to get the answers for some of these (i.e. cheat off someone else)
