Private message to Mother and Father
Apr. 11th, 2013 03:34 pmYou said not to worry about the robes for the wedding, that they would be all taken care of and all I would have to do was go for final adjustments and pick them up today. I know that I need to make a good impression at the wedding, but what in Merlin's name made you think they needed to be purchased rather than rented? I did not expect to have to make a trip to Gringott's to empty my account for robes that are far fancier than I, as just an unescorted guest, needed and I'm never going to be able to wear again! This is NOT "taken care of." I'm not squiring someone who I need to impress or woo, I'm just going to two acquaintances' wedding, even if it is high society.
I'm not home yet because they were waiting to complete the work until they had been paid for. So I'm waiting in the lobby. I'm losing the entire afternoon's revision time because this "quick" errand has been anything but.
I'll be leaving these at home when I go back to Hogwarts. You must make sure that Jenni keeps the littles and their sticky fingers out of my wardrobe. Maybe I can find another occasion to wear them or sell them to recoup some of this.
