Harry Party

Linda and Ariel are getting ready to go to the Harry Potter party at Cody's, from 10 to midnight tonight. They're both dressed up to a tee -- Ariel did her own make up and they both look wonderful! Ariel is very excited, especially that she gets to stay up so late.

I have to say that Linda is also, shall we say, engaged. I got her a little book on Harry Potter secrets and hints about a year ago. She read it, and then got another book, and soon was online at Mugglenet almost every night reading essays and theories and coming up with her own about who's going to die, who is a spy, who can be trusted. She has a theory that McGonagall is a spy for Voldemort - note that she isn't a member of the Order of the Phoenix and that she asks Harry where he went with Dumbledore the night he died, and he doesn't tell her. Hm, she may have something there.

They're taking a camera to the party, so maybe I'll have some pictures to share.

Right now Ariel is dancing like a beautiful goddess to some music, enjoying the fact that it's already an hour past her bedtime and the night is still young. So cute.

Testing, testing

Subscribing by Email

I just added a widget to let you subscribe by email. This is for those of you who don't have blog readers lying around. Although I highly recommend Google Reader.

What, another blog?

Well, this one is for that very small but passionate group of readers (you know who you are) who actually do want to hear all the details about my family (yes, the cute movies, the cute pictures, the silly stories, all of it).

I don't feel comfortable foisting this on the folks who want to read about Java or databases or the Web, so I specialized.

Nothing to report right now, but when the moment inspires me, you'll hear from me.
