Am in KS. Was a very long drive and I listened to the audio book of Philosopher's Stone most of the way North.
Staying with Alex since Tuesday. Spent most of the week working on AG stuff and burning CDs (52 of them on Wednesday *headdesk*).

devsgma and I worked on the Harry/Myrtle story arc this week and the resulting threads were wonderful (in my humble opinion). Two highlights are the romantic dinner that ended in Venice (smut at the end, just an FYI) and the last night.
We also wrote a great Severus/Min conversation where in Min proves she's not stupid and Severus admires her for it.
Dung has returned. Cho and Blaise have joined the cast. Drunking gatherings and the morning after. Lots of great stuff that I don't have time to post links to now, but there will be links gathered soon, I promise.
Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I loved it. And the Willy Wonka Song is stuck in my head. I wasn't going to buy the soundtrack because I really didn't need to spend $20 on brain cell killing songs sung by Danny Elfman as the Oompa Lumpas... but now I want it. I almost think I neeeeddd it.
"Everything here is eatable. I'm eatable, but that, my children, is called cannibalism and it is frowned upon in most societies."
Went to the midnight book party to pick up my copy(copies) of HBP. Yes, I dressed up. Hush. Yes I was one of only a handful of adults in costume (J andrewil being the other two. And J was working. But that's okay. I had my picture taken and you know how I'm such an attention whore (that's sarcasm, I know it doesn't translate well in the written word). beeform and sigma7 were there as our pet Muggles.
Since we were in line with the books for nearly an hour waiting to be allowed to purchase them,rewil decided to start at the back of the book and point out things of interest. So, having only ready the first chapter myself, I already know who died, who did it, who the HBP is, have confirmed several spoilers and threatened to beat at least two people about the head with the heavy book.
I've already posted a disclaimer on Afterglow's info page reminding readers that we are based on canon through book 5.
