In the likely event that mum asks if you are available for Easter supper on Sunday, if you could tell her that I waited too long to mention it so you made other plans, that would be appreciated. Thank-you.

[Friends of Aves]
Does anyone have any ideas that they'd like considered/incorporated into Averys 21st?

Three envelopes are sitting on my counter from three different firms.


I am not sure if I am ready to open them.


I am instead pondering this quote from a book I am reading:

Whatever your calling, it's already rooted within you, and those roots can be trampled or tugged at but never removed. They grow stronger only when tended, nurtured, and most important, shared with others.

I got TWO OFFERS! Saidu Smith Raine or Addleshaw Womble...

If anyone is able and willing to ingest the sins of one affectionately referred to as, "creepy Great Uncle Tim", do contact either Avery or me. The family of the deceased is prepared to pay handsomely for your eternal damnation.


[Aves]
Will you be available when I'm finished at the hospital?

In the event that word has not made it to you as of yet, the pap have been trying to sneak into the Commons again.

I hear that was one hell of an exciting Spring Classic. Bummed I missed it, but sure as shit was I kept busy.

Fig. That glitter is still everywhere.

[Sara]

[Mina]
Want me to make you anything special? My treat.

My career change plans are on course. I have three interviews this week for apprentice positions at various firms in London. I am going to spend my time between now and finding a placement reviewing the wizarding code in relation to domestic issues. Hopefully, by this time next year I will be preparing to sit for the bar exam, which I admit is an ambitious timeline.

I am eternally grateful to Jo and Cal for being such incredibly supportive friends through this.

Quodpot's definitely an interesting time, but my ears are still ringing.

As of this morning, I have sent out 11 letters of inquiry for solicitor apprenticeship positions and secured one initial interview. I am focused on firms that primarily work in the areas of education, children, and families. If anyone has any recommendations, I would be happy to hear them.

My last day at the Ministry is March 19.

Are we still going out this weekend?

If anyone is interested, I have a number of free tickets to an exhibition Quodpot match between two visiting American professional teams. 6 PM next Saturday, under the lights at the Bodmin Moor Millennium Stadium. First in, best dressed on the tickets.

We could live perfectly fine without pinkies.

Does this mean we'll be related? Is that incest?

Did you know about only 43% of the total cells in your body are actually a part of you?

[Parker]
Do you think I would be a decent pet owner?

[Mina & Becca]
I suppose I should let you both know I've gone down the rabbit hole.

It looks like my short trip to Brussels for the quarterly ICW meeting will now be a longer trip to Beijing after the International Association of Pyrotechnic Potioners had a bit of a mishap at the conference center we were due to use.


The ICW will now be debating regulations on wizarding fireworks and pyrotechnics, including grading them based on size.


I am surprised that there is not a single book on wizarding pyrotechnics written by an Weasley expert with significant practical experience.


Note: This was edited with the scratches and the replacement for Weasley written in

In honour of our lovely snow moon tonight, I thought it might be nice to try and get to know each other a little better through a game! We used to play this sort of thing often in camp, usually with either hard hitters or 'scandalous', but I think I will start it off with some simpler ones and you can decide where we go from there.

1. Grab a beverage
2. Answer as many questions as you'd like
3. Ask as many questions as you'd like
4. Discuss!
5. Have fun with it.

Anyone can join! Anyone can answer anything! Anyone can ask anything! Feel free to discuss! If you'd rather close your answer to a smaller group, you are free to do that as well. Maybe your nearest can learn something as well.

If this goes bust, it didn't happen. I'll start!

    ooc: the rules
  • new questions become new subject lines;
  • new questions can be asked by anyone about anything and at anytime, there's no need to wait, it's a free for all;
  • seriously anything: from favourite colour to first bout of magic to best shag to greatest fears;
  • answer as many or as few as you'd like;
  • remember this is IC and therefore can be used in future
  • blow up my inbox

I am very pleased to announce that I will be moving into The Commons on March 1. I signed my lease today. The movers have been hired to move my bedroom furniture from the townhouse to my new flat on Monday.

It will be interesting to have roommates for the first time since Hogwarts.

The post-Valentine candy crew that come in are really an interesting bunch. Some are opportunistic - just getting in some affordable stock for people they didn't see since before Valentine's day, but still want to look thoughtful for. Some are just frugal. And nothing is more strange than someone being frugal about candy, which is basically the most frivolous food. Some are sad sad sacks. Just buying candy for themselves at discount prices. It'd really be the perfect place for a cute first encounter. A sad lonely sack and a frugal old man? Come on. Either that or the sugar fumes are coating my brain in a fine candy shell. I guess it's better than letting these sad sacks get me down.

Who knows how to crack a back? Like... well. Not just willy nilly cracking.

What is the best way to break to your parents they probably shouldn't subscribe to any sportwear media in the next couple of weeks?

It's been a great day and still all I want to do is take a long nap under half a dozen blankets. I'm blaming the weather!


Anyone just want to watch a movie and eat popcorn?
