First time I've been kidnapped and not had someone try to kill me. But I still can't say I want to repeat the experience.
It's also my duty to inform everyone that tomorrow is the birthday of the girl who might as well be my sister: Miss Hermione Jean Granger. And in light of that, we will be celebrating Hermione with drinks, cake, and presents at The Elle. If you're stumped on what to get her -- Hermione's never met a book she didn't read as soon as possible. Or just give her a really infuriating riddle to solve.
And I'll leave you all with a question to ponder and answer if you so choose:
What inanimate object brings you the most joy?
My answer: I don't have it here, but my Rookie of the Year award from my first season with my quidditch team at home. It represents a lot of dreams I had growing up, and all the hard work I put in to get where I was in my career when I won it.
A close second, though, are the two necklaces I always wear. One was part of a set -- a necklace and earrings with my birthstone -- that the twins gave me for Christmas in 1997. The other, a lion's head engraved into a gold disk pendant, was a gift from Harry for my seventeenth birthday. Though that's as much sentimental value as the tracking charm it has so that he can find me in a crisis. Not that it works when you're kidnapped to another dimension or whatever that was.
ooc: pretend this is posted tomorrow -- Hermione's birthday is Sept. 19. I just have a busy day and might not have time to post, and I didn't want to miss out on Ginny blasting the message about it!
