That means: it's almost Wednesday. This fact wouldn't be special except that we have Thanksgiving Break. I'm very excited for it.

I'll get to finish fringing my stupid Slytherin POA scarf of doom. I can work on my long forgotten sweater of loveliness.

I can use up that very expensive pretty yarn made of silk for a very pretty leaf-patterned lace scarf. It might not be very warm, but hell if it isn't great.

Latin is great, too. I can now say, "You whip your mother and father." Isn't that amazing? I can insult someone in Latin. Ha. I love it.

Also, I had Lucky Charms this morning. That makes me happy.

Phew...

Gee, my Latin homework took forever to do.

I wish I had some Dublin Mudslide Ben & Jerry's. That is the best ice cream ever. However, I do have the swirled Nestle chocolate chips and Dagoba chocolate. That is some damn fine chocolate. I lurve it.

I'm not sure what to do with the rest of my evening. Hmm... Too bad I couldn't write an infinitely long post. That'd kill a bunch of time.

It's still cold in my dorm, very strange...

As the title states, today wasn't very exciting. Nor has it been particularly productive, but that's beside the point.

Hmm... I should do homework. There's quite a bit of it tonight. Like, a lot. Reflexive and intensive pronouns are annoying.

I did better than I thought I would on my Latin exam, though. That was a happy occasion. I was so worried about it, even though I shouldn't have been. I guess I'm overly anxious sometimes.

It was so foggy this morning. Like no other. Very cool, methinks. It's also cold in my dorm for the first time ever. I even shut the window. That's exciting, too.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire!

I'm not sure what I was expecting when I sat down to watch it, but I certainly got more than I bargained for.

It was the best HP movie of the four, by miles. It was completely intense. I was almost in tears near the end.

But oh, how I loved it. Even if it didn't have the same exotic style that POA, it had style. It was almost how I felt POA should have been, but upped a notch.

I'll say now Goblet of Fire was never my favorite book. In fact, it was probably fourth on the list, coming in just above Chamber of Secrets and Sorcerer's Stone. Those I sort of ignore, since the movies do a perfectly good job completely summarizing them to the point of...

Anyway. I might have to reread GOF, but I probably won't. But everything was perfect, perfect! I couldn't find a single thing wrong with it.

The Death Eaters: scary as all hell. I was afraid I'd have nightmares over those jumped up, psychotic Klan members. And Voldemort, no where near as ridiculous as he could have been. I was glad for that. I shouldn't have doubted Ralph Fiennes. In fact, Jude Law, despite having an appearance similar to Christian Coulson, might well have messed everything up. At the point of Voldemort's resurrection, it doesn't matter much anyhow.

Many of the things the movie did, to streamline it, were better than what is in the book. I was amazed. Everything worked, even if at first one is like: what the hell, that doesn't happen in the book. It all works. And everything is scary. I'm not sure there was any possible way they could have gotten anything but a PG-13 rating.

Yay! Harry Potter is tonight. I finally get to see Cedric in action. That is all shades of happiness.

Also happiness? Reading dirty poetry by Catullus in Latin. Such a perverted man...

Oh, well. It was funny. (Also funny? The word for sparrow in Latin is also slang for a guy's manhood. Isn't it nice what one learns at university?)

Ooh, and Battlestar has been renewed for a third season, not that it was surprising or anything.

But anyway. Harry Potter! I'm so happy. Supposedly, there are great shots of the Irish Quidditch team's "official" scarf. I'll so make one. Eventually.

But yes! Cedric. I should have made an "I support Cedric" shirt or something. And the girl that plays Cho Chang can't be as annoying as I thought she would be because I saw a clip of her and she had the cutest Irish/English/Scottish cockney-esque accent ever.

I want a Ravenclaw scarf now. But I love my Slytherin one that is almost done. It's soft and warm and big. If I decide to do a Ravenclaw scarf, though, it's going to be as close to replicated as possible. Like, DK weight yarn and 1x1 ribbing. It'll be as exact as humanly possible. That'll be after I finish the Slytherin scarf and my sweater I've been neglecting.

I'm also looking forward to seeing what these supposed "Hogwarts scarves" are all about. I've seen pictures, but I don't know whether they're actually Hogwarts scarfs or just random. And supposedly Beauxbatons has cool scarfs, too.

I realize I am a huge knitting geek. I'm okay with that.

I wonder if Durmstrang has scarves. I haven't seen anything about that... oh well. We'll see soon enough.
