myurbandream | rain is awesome!

so, i definitely have to leave for work in like five minutes, but i just wanted to make a quick update. today has been great! after waking up, i read hp7 aloud to jess and- no spoilers!- i have to say i'm quite impressed. we only got a couple chapters in, but it's obvious that jkr is either listening to her rabid fanbase, or taking the books in a sensible direction. sev in ch1 was ambiguous about his evil-ness (or lack there-of!) and voldemort was... if not sane, then at least stable enough to offer hope that at one point he was sane enough that people might follow him for other reasons than being a) crazy themselves, or b) totally f***ing terrified of him. and in ch2, we got a harry who was not a whiny little bi***- surprise, surprise! i'm quite impressed, i must say.

anyway, i left jess to read on her own and took paddy to the dogpark again with cait and jess and duke. this one was one that cait's been to before, so we let the dogs off-leash and they ran around a lot by the water. ^_____^ but paddy got pooped out half-way through- she's still all fat and sausage-shaped because no one at home takes her for walks. and then it started to rain and we left anyway. ah, well. we'll go again monday, with bri.

and jim is pro'ly getting a great job this year- the guy called him this morning (last night?) about it and he's practcically hired to this one kitchen. yay!!! i'm so happy for him.

ack, okay now i really have to go to work. it's raining hard- which is nice, except that i have to drive through it, and marshy hates water, he hydroplanes like nobody's business. little bugger. so! leaving a few minutes early. ttyl!!!!
