You know, it's the strangest thing, but I've been feeling rather nice all day. Even the stupid goat following me around isn't as annoying as usual. I wonder why it used to bother me so much?

[pause]

That's not really the point of this entry, though I have noticed that people often like to write about very mundane things in their lives. No, I was actually a bit bored this evening, so I wondered if anyone needed any help with homework? I've gotten all mine done, and it just seems like it might be a nice thing to do for people. Of course, I wouldn't actually do it FOR anyone, but I could probably help make some of the difficult concepts clearer. I'm quite a bit smarter than most of the people in the school, not that that's really anyone's fault.

[pause]

Holmes, we never did find you, I think, what happened with your goat?

[pause]

You know, really looking on it, I think I might be a homosexual. It was bothering me for awhile, for all sorts of reasons. But it's like the goat thing - suddenly it doesn't seem to be so important.

Oh, yes, I know the book, I think everyone does, except the purebloods. That's kind of a ridiculous term, isn't it, pureblood? It doesn't make any sense. But I didn't realize that it was also used as a euphemism for homosexuality. Interesting.

I don't think anyone's ever accused me of it, though, so I couldn't really be denying it.

THERE'S THIS THING CALLED THE INTERNET. YOU SHOULD GET TO KNOW IT SOMETIME.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE ACCUSED OF IT FOR IT TO BE TRUE.

I know the internet! Obviously, most of the resources on there are bunk, but it's useful for finding scientific articles and some of the published research.

And that's correct, I don't have to be accused of it for it to be true, but I do have to be accused of it to deny my homosexuality, which is what 'in the closet' means, correct? I haven't denied it, I just only recently realized it. It was a bit uncomfortable, really. Have you ever been interested in someone the same sex? Disconcerting. I even found myself 'checking out' someone I didn't like as a person!
