3) Draw fanart: No. I have trouble with smiley-faces, honestly.

5) Read too many fics: Absolutely.

98) Did Ron: It would be interesting if he didn't.
99) Is Harry going to die or will he survive: Oh, he'll survive. Dumbledore won't.

ok, last spam of the evening. This was so good I had to make sure you saw it: Aetiologia by lalejandra. Brand spankin' new tonight.

oh, the plot tingles! Whatever crack lalejandra's usually smoking, this one must have come from some serious Book 6/7 discussion on possible plotlines, and is sans porny content.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

It's great! I loved all of the Muggle/Wizard stuff...loved Draco being only from Malfoy...many, many, many awesome details. And Neville asserting that trying to clean up the dirt using a spell would only "make it worse" was so perfect. Thanks for the rec!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I absolutely loved that the author quotes one of my favorite Tori songs (Hotel). Awesome...

[gypsyjolie.livejournal.com]

lalejandra was my first fandom and favorite writer for a long time. She's a cutting wit. Kind of like Tori herself. I didn't know you were a Tori fan! Maybe I should send you a care package of Tori bootlegs?

oh, have you seen this Snape community? How do you post a community anyway? I know to post a LJ user you do the < lj usr="" > but how do you do the same thing for a community? < lj community = "" > doesn't seem to work.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

To post a community you would use [lj comm=""] (with the happy pointies instead of brackets, but you knew that)

I'm surprised that you didn't remember that I was a Tori fan...Didn't I give you a duo of CDs I burned from all of my singles a couple years ago? ;) I finally got to see her in concert for the first time last year. It was a big year for me because I saw her and Peter Gabriel in the same year, both for the first time. (My holy trilogy is Tori, Peter, and Kate Bush, but I will never see Kate Bush, alas.)

I watch snapesupport, prof_snape, severus_snape01, shrine_of_snape, smelling_salts, snapes_muse, snapish_smut, sufferingsev, sycophant_hex, snape_fic. There's also one called do_me_profsnape.

Hmmm. Wonder if I like Severus or something. ;)

*smites self*

DUDE

I totally forgot that you gave me that awesome Tori b-sides set. It started my collection. I grovel at your feet. I've got about 130 Tori bootlegs, so I shall put together something fabulous darling for you. IF you send me your address.

Also, I've downloaded some Muse Absolution on your recommendation. Very lush. Any other music recommendations?

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I will e-mail my address.

Tori has been my musical goddess for many, many years, but I find myself straying suddenly into the realm of Nu-metal. Odd, very odd, but lots of fun.

Right now Muse is my absolute fave, I think. I also love Coheed & Cambria. Muse is kind of a mix of C & C and Radiohead, so if you like Muse, you may like C & C. The rest of my listening list is all nu-metal. Disturbed is one of my faves. I like fingereleven, System of a Down and Three Days Grace a lot as well.

On my second tier I would put Adema, Saliva, Breaking Benjamin, lostprophets, POD.

Haven't listened to anything else wonderful lately because I've been so caught up in this bizarre nu-metal thing.
