I haven't gotten very far on the song from Valentine's Day, but somehow I ended up with this:

I'm the girl in the corner of the room
The one you never notice
Getting lost among the stars in the sky
Like a picture out of focus

I'm the sun in your eyes
Yet you don't see me
I wear no disguise
But you don't see me
I'm a total surprise
And you don't see me

I'm so agonized
'Cause you don't see me
You don't see me

I've been looking into patronuses lately while studying for OWLs.

...Or is that patroni? Maybe patronae?

Well, whatever, in any case I've found that they generally take the form of something most significant to you. That's usually an animal of some type, because you know, animals and magical symbolism are fairly close to each other.

What sort of animal do you think yours would take the shape of? I've been thinking it over and I'm a little convinced that mine would be a magpie. If I wanted to try and make one, that is.

I think I should try it.

In the interest of correcting some misinformation, leap day actually happens because it actually takes slightly longer than 365 days for the earth to fully orbit the sun. Without the addition of an extra day every four years, the calendar would eventually slip out of sync with the seasons. In fact, the current Gregorian calendar was designed to keep the date of Easter correct with respect to the vernal equinox.

Interestingly enough, although leap years usually occur in any year that is divisible by four, years that are evenly divisible by 100 but not by 400 are not leap years. Just to keep everything even.

Now, isn't that much more interesting?

[ Nepeta's been pretty quiet since Valentine's, but all the team spirit following the Quidditch match seems to be bringing back her usual perkiness. As always, every line comes with a little kitty face doodled beside it. ]

:3 < i am supurr proud of my teammates
:3 < and hufflepuff played really really well too!

It's Leap Day, that special time that only comes around once every four years! It occurs to me that not many people are familiar with the kinds of things that make Leap Day so unique, but lucky for you all I'm here to set you straight on these little-known but 100% scientifically accurate facts!

LEAP DAY FUN TRIVIA
1. If you're conceived on Leap Day, you're born with a prehensile tail. Parents usually decide to cut it off at birth, but if you manage to live to see 25 Leap Days, it grows back with a vengeance.

2. On Leap Day, everyone is exempt from one of the laws of physics, but which one varies from person to person. You just have to find out yours through trial and error!

3. In Venezuela, the color orange completely vanishes and nobody living there remembers it having ever existed. It comes back at midnight on March 1st.

4. If you wish for something on Leap Day, it will be granted! But the wish has to relate to office supplies in some way.

5. If you die on Leap Day, you come back to life at the next Leap Day! Unfortunately, the resurrection is usually pretty short-lived, since few people are keen on digging up four-year-old graves.

There! Isn't learning fun?

OHH, MY TEAM, YOU ALL HAVE CARVED YOUR NAMES ONTO MY HEART!! SLICE OPEN MY CHEST AND SEE YOUR NAMES, WRIT IN EVERLASTING INK - OBSIDIAN BLACK ON SCARLET RED -, EXPANDING AND CONTRACTING ON THE MUSCLE, FLUTTERING AT HUMMINGBIRD-SPEED, THAT PROPELS ME FORWARD!!

What a beautifully happy story you have written for me! What a win! I could kiss all of you right now!! Each and every one of you!

Oh but look at me, look at my tactless arrogance! See how I discount the tragedy, the heart-stopping despair our actions have dumped upon fair Hufflepuff House!! Is this what it means to live in a corrupt universe, a dog-eat-dog landscape where happiness for one inevitably begets tragedy? Happiness, sadness, victory, misery, all swirling together in a wonderful, beautiful, confused mess.

Hufflepuff, rest assured that I am a conscientious predator, and I acknowledge and revere the loss you had to suffer to sustain us.

Definitely not my best work, but I wrote a bit of a song today. Maybe this would be the chorus... I'm not sure.

I love the way you get me
But, correct me if I'm wrong
This is not a love song
No, not a love song
I love the things you do
It's how you do the things you love
The way you sing it
With me through it
I guess I always knew it
I love the way you get me
But, correct me if I'm wrong
This is not a love song
No, not a love song

So, Hogsmeade went okay. And Valentine's Day wasn't a total disaster. It's safe to say I survived February.

stagefrightened

Am I the only one who finds it a little weird that people are still talking about Valentine's Day and stuff after what happened?

I mean... I don't think it's bad, really, that people are able to think about other things. It's probably actually really healthy!

It just seems like it must be hard to do. Or maybe it's just me.
