Private Message to Harry Marvolo

Hey,
Would you be available for doing something... like anything outside my house this weekend?

It's been another week of exercise, exercise and more exercises, but never pushing too hard because then I might hurt myself.

Jaspar's in a snit because he's not going to Hogwarts this fall, but his friends Hazel Oxley and Hereward Whitby are. Shelley thinks that the world should run to her whim and becomes incredibly shrill and repetitive when thwarted. Lilith's just started eating, or wearing as the case may be, solid food.

Last week Mum was on about painting being wonderful therapy. Yesterday she asked why I wasn't writing poetry anymore. The last time I wrote "poetry" was a card for her first year in the village school. I think it was something like:

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Grass is Green
I luv you Mum

Dad asked when I was going to go talk to the Cannons about flying for them THIS FALL. I nearly snapped. Long and short, I have to get out of the house or I'm going to start yelling and that won't help anyone.

How are things going for you? EvEryThing Alright with yOu And Our friEnds?

You should start writing part of a really nasty limerick or something and leave it where they can read it. Like 'There once was a lovely young lass, who loved putting things...'

Yeah, we can get out. I'm back from the Malfoy's.

And things are okay. It keeps feeling like something big is going to happen, only then it doesn't. You ever feel like that?

Thanks for the laugh.

Meet in town on Saturday? We could see if Draco, Tyche, Heph or the Twins want to come have lunch (Gillicuddy's?) and go window shopping or something. No flying yet.

My future lurks on the horizon like a fog bank before the on-coming storm. (Maybe I should try my hand at poetry!) I can't help feeling like I should be preparing for Hogwarts in the fall. Though it does still look like I'll be there, but with some sort of personal apartment. The details as to whether I'll be on the grounds, in Hogsmeade or something else haven't been worked out. Can't be too far away, it would be unwise to be apparating too much and I think Proff Antonin's going to want me nearby. That's going to take some getting used to.

[alt_harry]

Yeah, we can walk around and eat something. I'll talk to Draco.

I bet it's going to be weird, not going to normal classes and all. And with everyone else in your year not around either.

But it'd be ace if you were in Hogsmeade. I bet that'd be less weird. And you could go to the Cauldron whenever you wanted.

[alt_cedric]

Yeah Hogsmeade could be ace, but I'm concerned about the back and forth. I'm talking to the healers about whether it would be better to have the daily exercise or it's pushing too much and should be avoided. Hogwarts would mean that board is included and galleons for my vault. Pros and cons no matter the line-up.

Time to tap out for the night. See you Saturday.

[alt_harry]

See you then.
