I'm a bit YAY right now.

Firstly.

A. Thank all of you lovely people who wished me a happy birthday! I had a great day, and a big chocolate cake, and it was rather cool. I knew in advance that I couldn't possibly hope to beat last year's birthday (Judi Dench liek omg, and then shopping at Harrods with [livejournal.com profile] princesslucia and eating La Duree macaroons and wandering up and down Charing Cross Rd), so I didn't try, but it was still very awesome.

Also, I got
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

They're really awesome.

B. I am not going to let myself get excited until I have flights booked and passport and visa in hand, but I think I shall be coming over to your neck of the woods (your = a great many people on my flist). My Dad has agreed to pay for the flight (as the 21st gift), and I shall hopefully be visiting [livejournal.com profile] ooh_blah_blah (and maybe [livejournal.com profile] doesnotlikethis and/or [livejournal.com profile] dfmovieman?) in Seattle in the summer! Hopefully, the money will extend to allow me to go and stay a few days with [livejournal.com profile] cocohufflepuffs and [livejournal.com profile] chibitoaster who will be visiting together for the release of DH. I wish I could stay for a YEAR, and visit about 463553 more of you, but your country is freakin' huge, and my uni break (and my wallet) will only let me do so much.

*flails a bit, despite resolve not to get excited yet*

C. Also, a few recs:

So Much Potential by [livejournal.com profile] florahart. Rita/um, a beetle. This is the BEST sort of crack. Nearly killed me. Go read.

Barking At The Moon by [livejournal.com profile] rinsbane. Petunia/Snape. This is an absolutely amazing piece of writing. Powerful and understated, beautiful and heart-wrenching. Even if you've never read/considered the pairing, go and take a look.


I'm sure there was more I wanted to say. Gah. I can't think of it now. Oh, well, that'll do

Oh I missed your birthday!
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!

Hope you had a fantastic one!

And that will be so wonderful to be away for the release of DH!!! Lucky it is on uni break!

I love Petunia/Snape.

Everyone has pairings that make them say "OMG why don't more people see how this is so perfect?" Petunia/Snape does that for me. I like them paired as teens and as older adults. They are just wonderful together.
