"Don't party too hard." July 26, 2011

Uhm. Hey.

So this is awkward.

Right, yeah.

So sorry about this hiatus thing.

I know, I know.

I didn't break up with you.

It's okay.

Oh? What have I been up to?

Not much. Saw Harry Potter and cried through the last two thirds and the car ride home.

Spend a lot of time with Atlas.

Worked a lot?

And you?

So. Hey Internet. It's me. I know, it's been forever. But hopefully I'll manage to blog more. I mean, hell. I'm doing my best.

I guess I could talk about Harry Potter. That's what I've been meaning to blog about for pretty much ever. Or since the night of the fourteenth.

I'd like to start out by saying that I am so incredibly blessed to be a part of this fandom. This wonderful community has given me more than I could ever ask for. I am endlessly thankful for the many opportunities and friendships these books have given me. They have brought me some amazing people, and showed me out of dark times. As stupid as it sounds, I feel a little empty now that I know it really is over. Even writing this, admitting that it really is done, makes me a little bit ill.

I went to my last midnight premiere, and I cried with my best friend, and held hands with Professor Snape.

But just as there was a last Beatles song, and a last Shakespeare play, there had to be a last book, and then a last movie.

But this isn't the end.

The Beatles still inspire so many, and Shakespeare's writing is still beautiful.

This will never be over.

Magic is stronger than time.

Today I saw: The lovely messages that have been left for me in my absence, you guys are awesome.

Today I heard: Myself sing. Is that weird? I've been singing a lot more lately.

Today I smelled: Library books. Seeing that I work at one, I tend to smell like books most of the time.

Today I tasted: SUCCESS. Even after all this time, I remembered the order my senses came in.

Today I touched: Keys. Sweet, sweet laptop keys.
