    Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

    I'm putting together a christmas present for my sister in law. She LOVES harry potter. I bought a purse with the book covers on and then I'm making an acceptance letter... I had fun, so I found a tutorial to make a marauders map... I've made boxes for every flavour beans and chocolate frogs. I kind of want to make more. But I'm out of ideas. Anyone?
    You remind me of the babe
    What babe?
    The babe with the power
    What power?
    The Power of voodoo
    Who do?
    You do!
    Do what?
    Remind me of the babe!

      That sounds wonderful! Making the Marauder's Map sounds quite difficult though.
      Hmm... ideas. The diary of Tom Riddle would be sort of easy to make, I suppose. Perhaps a wand? Those goggles of Luna Lovegood, I think I've seen an online tutorial somewhere how to make those... And something with quotes from HP books.

      I'm tired and on a train that seems to be going through the darkest place in the universe but at least I've got some 'Shaman's Fire'. (sort of tea that is.) And Snatam Kaur's music. Soothing as a sleeping marmot.
      baah.

        Thank you Corbin!! Two more dinner shifts and I'm off.

            It doesn't look too bad... I'm probably gonna regret saying that once I get started but I'm ejoying it. Uh. Her name IS luna, giving her some luna stuff would be cool.

            Thal I found the templates for the other stuff on pinterest. It's great but if you find something cool please let me know! I'm thinking of making a skiving snackbox, but I'm not sure what kind of candy to put in it.

              So....I live in the 32nd largest metropolitan area in the US with several million people to a rural county with 50k. My (small) town wasn't much smaller that that.

              I'm moving from a place where I just waited for the kids' bus with a Muslim mom in a niquab, a Hatian mom speaking French to her baby (who was playing with the Muslim mom's bracelets), and a Hispanic mom, who's son who helped me pick out pretty leaves for our Samhain altar...

              I'm excited that we'll be able to afford property (when we find the right one)....but I'm not sure its actually worth it.

                Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                          I knit a little, but I can only knit scarves never learned how to do anything but the basic. But I've got some fimo clay and I'm pretty good at jewelry making, I can probably make radish earrings and a golden snitch

                            Ex-Friend

                            A long time ago I used to have a friend on Youtube. Everything went well until one of her friends said horrible things to me. So I threatened one of her friends and after that she broke off my friendship. We started a war and it went downhill after that.

                              Lol...I don't knit at all, but I can crochet. A couple years ago I made a friend a Ravenclaw scarf.

                                60% of online users are red.

                                Edit:
                                well, it was 60% briefly
                                life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                                Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

                                "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                                John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

                                "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

                                Aslan, Prince Caspian by CS Lewis
