caution: swearing

[mhalachai]

I swear to *god*, I have never been so close to abandoning Inevitable as I am right now. Think I can go back a few chapters and have Olaf and Nathaniel having a nice tea party instead? At this point, it would be less painful to spork my eyes out. This chapter is never going to fucking end.

[/rant]

yeah, yeah, back at it. No fic abandonage today.

So, um, today's link/rec/point: Today's Harry Potter news:

The Vatican's whipped out its head exorcist to say Harry Potter is evil. As anyone who's read mctabby's summary executions knows, he's right.

A blogger is comparing those recently unveiled claim that Judas was helping Jesus, as published in the Gospels of Judas, with the actions of Snape in HBP.

ETA: Sheesh, I'm whining again, aren't I? Somebody slap me. Really, I do enjoy writing. I do, I do, I do believe in fairies.

Hey, I know what you could do with the story...

Insert a shiny red plot device that has the ability to absorb the angst like a Bounty paper towel!

HP canon already has a shiny red plot device *points at icon*

[shopteacher-guy.livejournal.com]

Well, there you go!, just have Harry mail that to St. Louis and whammo... all your plot problems are gone... like magic

Or there's always this one, which you could use right now: The Bright Red Button Of Easiness! (http://www.staples.com/sbd/cre/marketing/easybutton/index.html)

*pushes the button*

*is taken to buy school supplies*

*dies ded from happy*

See? It works!

Now if I can cheer up my husband -- who gained weight even though he wore out his feet walking this weekend (I keep telling him that biking burns more calories, but he's in Nathaniel Mode right now) -- I'll be happy. :-)

I love that little icon!

had to edit out mistakes, sorry.

ANITA: *opens box, reads* To help keep your mind off of things, I've sent you a remembrall. If the smoke turns red, you've forgotten something. Harry.

JASON: I have a bad feeling about this.

ANITA: *picks up ball. it turns red* Great, what did I forget?

NATHANIEL: Uh oh.

SIX HOURS LATER

JASON: What was this howler thing of which Tammy spoke?

ANITA: *screams and throws ball in fury*

ENGLAND

TRELAWNEY: I feel a disturbance in the force. It's like the voices of a pack, pard, and kiss all at once screamed out in terror and then were silenced.

HARRY: Uh oh.

[mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com]

OMG how did I miss this?? Love! Esp NATHANIEL: Uh oh.

[watcher457.livejournal.com]

you missed this because i posted it only two weeks ago, which was a while after the original post was made. it was probably buried in e-mails.

see. this is what public transportation does to you. it has trelawney quoting star wars. oh, the pain.
