Ice Cold In Lancaster. I should put the heating on.

apollaI should currently be trying to devise five chapter titles/questions for my Very Important Dissertation. I should and yet instead, I'm really not. It's not like 'Jim Morrison' is even a difficult subject.
Stuff That's Happened Today (Not Necessarily to Me): Paul Burrell gets to put his own story forward in The Daily Mirror (my newspaper of choice). And STILL the Queen comes out squeaky clean! I swear, the woman dresses in Teflon!
What else? Mick McCarthy quit as the manager of the Irish football team. Oh well. Just so long as whoever replaces him remembers that Roy Keane is an arrogant git not worthy of the honour of playing for his national team.
Oh this is boring!
I am SO narked at the moment- I can't get a direct train from university in Lancaster to my home down south. I want to go home for my grandad's birthday but it seems to be easier said than done... Damn you Virgin Trains!
I've been put on a warning about the Chamber of Secrets preview I'm off to on Friday (TWO DAYS TO GO!!). I'm not allowed to shout, scream, jump, bounce or otherwise act in ways instictive to myself until there's nobody else about. So in short, I have been told to act like a normal human being. Bugger.
I haven't really done anything interesting at all today. There really are only so many times I can watch Blackadder Goes Forth without feeling the need to dig a trench of my own. And I've started about fifteen Harry/Hermione ficlets and can't finish any of them. Although I have more or less finished HP DDD. I'm just polishing and tweaking. I intend though, not to take as long as JKR when it comes to tweaking. Surely there's only so much tweaking one can do?
Anyway, one last thing: Errol Flynn rocks. I say this because for one of my classes I have to write an essay (What Makes Hollywood 'Hollywood') and I find it highly amusing that I can write about Fleen and get marks for it. This university life is fantastic!

Darn. Normal is *so* overrated. But lucky you, getting to see it so soon! I'm jealous!

LOL! Firstly, very jealous that you'll be seeing CoS a full week before me! ;) Drat American theaters. 2)Normal? It's HP! There's no such thing as *normal* in HP. Am laughing at the thought. I personally think I'll need seat restraints. 3) Hope you get to your granddad's birthday! 4) Must stick a note on myself reminding me to read HP DDD, which I'm sure will be excellent like all your ficlets. And no one does 'tweaking' like JK. ;)
*wondering how you'll pull off 'normal'* ;)
