Whuppity Stourie

Good good good news on the writing front, but I'd rather not say a whole lot until stuff is final. Actually, all kind of news all the way around. And family stuff - saw cousin Doug this past weekend with his partner Theo (pronounced Teo, kinda like Tea Leoni, but with an "o"). Pam and Mom and Watston are coming for Thanksgiving. And Pam and Mike are coming for her birthday in October. That's all that I'll say for now.

Down to....

I'm finally down to 214 items in my inbox. Whew. But there's no way I'm getting to the post office today, so I guess the next Prize Book mailing will have to be Monday or Tuesday. At least I got some books out to reviewers this week.

Walked around the lake with Jill today too...boy, I need to exercise more.

Alyssa tagged me and I'm finally getting around to it (I still haven't gotten through all my emails...ack! It isn't so much the 1000 or so that piled up while I was gone, it's all the 100+ new ones I get every day on top of that!):

1. Butterbeer or pumpkin juice?

Hmmmm, I think Butterbeer. It sounds intriguing to me.

2. What House would you most likely (or want to) be in in Hogwarts?

Probably Ravenclaw, I think.

3. If you were an animagus, what animal would you turn into?

I'd have to say a cat...I'd probably be like my cat Grace...fat and sleepy.

4. What character do you empathize with, or resemble best?

Hermione.

5. What position do you play at Quidditch?

Er...spectator. I suck at sports.

6. Which teacher is your favorite?

Professor McGonagal. Or whathisname Mad Eye or something like that.

No...other than that I don't think Harry dies.
