» I had a bad migraine today and a damsel in distress moment downtown.
» I just wanted to let you know there isn't anything to worry about.
» I promise.

So it's "Weasley Weekend" on Freeform so I thought why not turn the movies on in the background while I work on my September training calendar and now I'm just too up in my feelings to concentrate. Because, listen, I don't get this whole thing with Sirius Black and how ~quick~ everyone is to believe that he's somehow a mass murderer?? Sure, okay, maybe it was a stretch to assume it was this Pettigrew dude, but even his best friend for freaking ever spent over a decade just assuming he deserved to rot in Azkaban?? Forget Harry, Sirius Black is the MOST MISTREATED CHARACTER OF THE WHOLE SERIES.

I'm also deeply offended on behalf of the Marauders that they legit got no belated credit for their genius in Prisoner of Azkaban, the movie. The movie's all like Marauders who???? Listen, WB, the Marauders are the REAL MVPs.


Like I said. I'm all up in my feelings now. Thanks Potter weekend. Or "Weasley Weekend" whatever.

Wow, Calla...I didn't know you had fifteen different Twitter accounts and that you were talking smack about me on all 15.

Can someone point me in the direction of the best hamburger in town? Don't say a chain, fast-food restaurant. There's got to be somewhere better.

I am Oceana Ridgeway, and I'm new to town. I will also be taking over many dance classes here in town with the retirement of Miss Farrah. I understand how beloved she is, but I'm looking forward to bringing something new to the table and contributing to the community. If you have any interest in lessons or know anyone who is, leave me a message and I will get back to you with options.

After a long, long day/month of coordinating events for Founder's Day and realizing how much I miss sleeping, I have come to the conclusion that I will gladly pay someone in smiles and hugs to plan my wedding for me and let me just show up and say I do. I'm a highschool teacher--smiles and hugs are all I have in terms of compensation.

Dad's not so subtly pushing me to give him an answer about the church. Should I reserve it, or do we want to settle on the outdoor wedding idea? I'm honestly happy either way. I just want our wedding to be what we both want.

» Do you want to know how in love & perfect for each other Calla and I really are?
» No? Well, okay, so, get this...
» We had detail-for-detail the same exact dream last night.
» Our collective subconscious turned you both into British men. And we were having some other not-Dahlia kid. A boy named Harry, which is like the most British name ever, I'm pretty sure.
» I don't know when we became such Anglophiles.

WHO: Calla and Jahan Puri, with a guest appearance of Dahlia Puri.
WHEN: Morning of July 31st.
WHERE: Their bedroom.
WHAT: The Puris receive their first memories.
WARNINGS: None!

( 'Top o' the mornin' to ya, cloudy day, innit? Wantta grab a pint and some fish and chips?' )

This girl is my new hero.

Is anyone else wasting their days off on their computer romancing dads or is it just me?


Just me? Cool.

Someone just tried to convince me that the U.S. Men's National Soccer Team is better than the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team. Then he said, "You can't compare them, they're not on the same level," because men are inherently superior on a physical level, etc.

I almost called the police.

P.S. Anyone as excited as I am to watch Michael Phelps race a shark tonight? No?

All the town has done is given me yet another platform to annoy the general populace with pictures of my utterly adorable child and give said child another place to find where I might have said or shared something embarrassing about them in her future. ( Cut for image! )

See? It's already happened and it's not my fault. It's technology's fault. And our great genes creating something so cute.

Dunhaven, VA: the city with less stoplights than fingers I have, one church, six schools, and its own social media app. We have interesting priorities.
