So, it's been a while. I so wasn't going to post here ever again. Somehow the world of blogs must know that I'm procrastinating. Like a siren it calls hauntingly to me and I am powerless against it. Or whatever...

Allow me to call just a short list of things out into the wilderness that is cyberspace:

Hope you're all well, I haven't been but am on the improve I think. Like Coleridge's wedding guest I return to this blog "a sadder and a wiser [wo]man"...

I hate marking, though there's not all that much new there...

I love Harry Potter and kind of like the idea of maybe posting about that whole thing at some point when I don't have a pile of work the size of my house...

I will not join FaceBook. I got on there accidentally for a few days last term and it made me so annoyed that I logged right off again. Having a job and not being a student kind of naturally selects people out of your life. FaceBook intends to facilitate bringing them all back in. I'm only interested in face-to-face or perhaps talk-on-the-phone relationships. That's all I have time for. If you want to talk to me, call me, or text me even... I don't need electronic friends. But you can comment here if you like!? Oh, the irony...

I feel it's safe to assume that no one will read this so a cheery "hello" to myself and a resounding "get back to work"...

It's Saturday night, Prince would say "I guess that makes it alright" but he was up to different stuff. Stuff that most of you wouldn't approve of...

Seemed to have developed a dangerous addiction to the ellipse... Better eat some dinner, it's flipping ten to flipping nine at night!!!

But first, I'll have to put a fun picture at the top of this post if I can remember how. Logging on here for the first time in how ever many months and seeing that photo of Ron and Harry made me happy. Now I have to find a photo of something else that makes me happy. Maybe I'll stick to the HP theme.

For some amusement, have a look at The Harry Ginny Network and underneath "Contributions" click on "Manipulations" There are people out there in the world with photoshop and TOO MUCH TIME ON THEIR HANDS! Heads too big for bodies? Bah! No one will even notice! I would have posted one but they are too much... How did I come across them you might ask? Well, that's a sad story for another time. (Sad as in pathetic, not sad as in tragic.) Need a time sucker? Unafraid of bad prose and disturbing mental images? Check out phoenixsong.net All these confessions! Lucky I'm the only one who'll read this!!! Phew!
