WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

Spike Jonze. Maurice Sendak. Monsters. Arcade Fire.

This gives me goosebumps!

POTTER!

Oh my goodness! I know I some may look down at me for this, but you know what? I'm not ashamed. Not ashamed of the fact that I have been a rabid Harry Potter fan since I was in middle school. Not ashamed of the fact that I've read a few of the books 2-3 times. Not ashamed of the fact that I was young enough when I started reading them to think I had a chance being cast as Hermione Granger if they were ever made into movies. I had really frizzy hair back then! I actually still do have frizzy hair but age has graced me with the wisdom to know how to contain it. A bit.

So, a Harry Potter exhibition is coming to Chicago in April. Lucky for me, I have la famiglia in Chicago and I was already planning on visiting them early next summer. This makes those plans concrete.

Yay!


Also, I kept writing "Happy Hotter" instead of "Harry Potter". Hello, subconscious?

As the country moves ahead, my (semblance of) maturity travels back in time...

Note to self:

Talk about Twilight.

More specifically, talk about Robert Pattinson.

Even more specifically, talk about newly developed urge to find vampire lover.

Edit: Talk about newly developed urge to find vampire lover who looks like Robert Pattinson.

This is going to get very pathetic very quickly.

Edit II: Also will consider tall werewolf lovers.
