as I’m watching Harry Potter

Slytherin
You are a Slytherin!!! You are one bloody evil bastard. You make being a jackass look nice. How you manage to keep friends is a mystery to even the Department of Mysteries. The Ministry of Magic has been watching you since birth and had a file 10 inches thick of all of your transgressions. Wait until you hit puberty!

Oddly, I always end up in Gryffendor when I go through the Sorting Hat on the official Harry Potter site.

But Slytherin is acceptable.

i don’t find this at all funny

I stopped into a little bijou-and-clothing shop yesterday while I was out picking up a cheesecake for dinner with my dad. I thought I might find a cute going-out top (I’ve been looking for such a thing for weeks, but I’m picky).

Instead, I found a pair of jeans. I was stunned when I tried them on and they fit—not too low-rise, not too tight, a nice wash, and the perfect length. They break right on my foot, so they’re not high-heels jeans, but they are great for sandals and sneakers. Also, they were $30. The absolute perfect pair of jeans!

Until I got home and cut the tag off and noticed it said “Ladies denim CAPRIS.”

That’s just sad. Nevertheless, I’ve been wearing them ever since. No one will ever know…except that I’m so stunned I’ve told almost everyone I’ve seen since I bought them.

something good out of the endless rain

I finally made it out to the mailbox today, after ignoring it since Thursday. My in-state school has accepted me, which is a lovely thing, even if I already know I won’t be attending it.

A la stag:

# of schools applied to: 5
# accepted: 3
# rejected: 1
# that have ignored my application since receiving it: 1

I’m that much closer to the end of all this. Mr. Angst should have a decision in a week or two, also, and then we can start writing checks.

huh?

The top song in the US on the day I was born?

Best of My Love, by the Emotions

In the UK?

Way Down, by the one and only Elvis.

I’m not sure how to feel about either of these.
