Game on!
Tweet So I finally got a response back from Delta about the lovely Christmas vacation trip. This is the response I got: Dear Mr. Morrette, Thank you for your e-mail regarding your recent trip with our Delta and our Delta Connection partner, Comair. We regret the circumstances you described and appreciate your taking the time [...]
I hate being sick
Tweet I felt a cold coming on but I thought I had pushed it out of my system. But last night, that cold bitch slapped me. And today I’m still feeling it. I think today and tomorrow might be the worst of it. At least that’s what I’m hoping. Worse case, I spend the weekend [...]
Away in a manger, with LBJ and a garden gnome?
Tweet As I was driving to work today I noticed one of the houses that normally has a huge Christmas display had outdone themselves this year. They have the prerequisite large inflatables and the santa and his sleigh and the manager scene. But upon closer inspection of the manger scene (normally this is a busy [...]
Dog tired…
Tweet Today we got in a 20 foot container. And for some reason our manufacturer in China feels it necessary to make the boxes as heavy as possible. So after roughly 20 boxes at 60lbs a piece, we were a little pissy. After that we had to unload about 135 more boxes at 35/40lbs a [...]
I got my HSKS package!
Tweet I was doing some knitting and watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and I heard our mailman head up the front porch step. I put my knitting down, thru on some shoes and ran to the porch. And there it was… my HSKS swap package from Lavender Ollivander! And here it [...]
The end of the semester
Tweet Well, it looks like my first semester at hogwarts is almost over. I was so close to getting the snitch the other day and I missed it by seconds. I guess there’s next semester. I have to say, this was probably one of the best swaps I’ve done. I’ve had a blast and i [...]
I'm so behind!
Tweet I just realized that I have a quidditch quiz that’s due and my SP13 questionaire to fill out! Ok, I’ve got to get the quidditch done first. And while I’m getting my new tires tomorrow, I’ll work on the SP13 questionaire. I promise 1. Who was Tom Riddle Sr.’s girlfriend before Merope gave him [...]
What kind of Hogwarts mischief have I been up to?
Tweet Well, let’s see. It started simple enough. I ordered a few things from the Weasleys Wizard Wheezes catalog… the usual stuff – some skiving snackboxes, a couple of trick wands… that sort of thing. Well, I accidentally picked up one of the trick wands I left laying around the Gryffindor table in the great [...]
Gryffindor House Assignment #4
Tweet OK, here it is… the next homework assignment. 1. Name your favorite magical creature, and describe why it is your favorite. My favorite magical creature is the mandrake. Here’s why, it looks like a cute little baby or old man (depending on how long you let them grow) and as you’re thinking about how [...]
Back in Seattle
Tweet I made it back to Seattle all in one piece. I’m exhausted. I feel like I’ve been knocked out. I’m sure it all hasn’t hit me yet. Every so often I start to get teary eyed. And I know that’s ok. I just keep knitting and know that grandma is with me. The cats [...]
