Dang.

I just whiled away half the day looking up Harry Potter stuff on the Internet, thank you very much Liz for posting about the GoF trailer! :D Has everyone who cares read the interview JKR did with the two fansite people on July 16? I laughed uproariously (if that's a word), and it's really interesting too. (That link is to one of the sites because I also particularly enjoyed this girl's "report"-- there's this one part where everyone is in their hotel rooms reading their own copies and exclaiming aloud and checking to make sure everyone else got that far too, which was just the best image).

Well I actually managed to be productive enough today too, so it all works out. I did laundry AND went to the grocery and wrote a WHOLE PAGE of Ian Schafer, and I think I may continue....

By the way, anyone know the best way to wash out oil stains? And is it safe to put oil stained items in the dryer if it's on low? The washing machine label seemed to indicate not, but I risked it anyway and it worked, but I don't want to suddenly blow up the house someday on ANOTHER occasion.

I hear I may be getting my computer back-- with improvements!-- soon...

I just have to announce that "Mr. Blue Sky" just came on again. Thank you.

I thought of something else I should have added too, but now I forget what it was again.

My next door neighbors are digging up their driveway.

I'm hungry.

The bouncy icon LOOKS like it's dancing to "Mr. Blue Sky," it really does. What a good icon.

I will write more later, when it is not bedtime.
