Feb. 9th, 2013 05:52 pmHogsmeade is always a fun time. It's interesting how as we get older, there are other parts of the village that hold more appeal. Everyone always enjoys Honeyduke's or Wiseacre's but I don't know why a third-year would go to Madam Puddifoot's for example, or whether next year we'll still have much use for Zonko's. Then again, maybe we'll never quite outgrow Zonko's.
It's also amazing how different the village is in winter versus our visits last term. Coming down to the village from the castle, the view was really breathtaking, all that snow. I'm glad we only get to go once in a while. It makes it that much more of a treat when we do, and besides that, of course, we can all use more time to catch up on homework.
After a snowy day like that, though, I sure hope there's something warm for supper tonight.
Oh, yeah, I'm looking forward to the YPL tomorrow, too. Anyone know what we'll be working on?

on 2013-02-10 01:14 am (UTC)Apparently my mother (my birth mother, I mean) was found dead. Umbridge broke the news to me really gently, you know: 'the worthless mudblood who lives with your father was found dead' or some such.
I think she was hoping I'd cry.

Why didn't you say? I mean--we didn't have to go to Puddifoot's at all. I just thought, since it's almost Valentine's--I mean, I can imagine you might not have wanted to do anything at all today...
I mean. Wow.
I'm sorry.

We've got an hour or two before curfew. Do you want to meet and talk about it? Or not talk about it?
