Snaaape! He's so dreamy!

The entire internets is acting really wonky this morning.  It would not accept my blog posts - and then later, when I wasn't looking, it posted them multiple times.

Are all the tubes overfilled or something? Whatever it is, I blame you.

So anyway, Halloween is coming. I'm supposed to have class on Tuesday night but I'm thinking about playing hookey so I can go trick-or-treating with my kid. It's my favorite holiday - I can't miss it.

Bunny wanted to dress up like a witch again. But she was a little bored with the prospect, as this would have been her third straight year. Luckily, the costume store had a girl's costume called a "Spellmaker". It's a black dress with a raggedy hem and with silver doodads all over it, plus a tall pointy black hat. See? Not a witch at all. Totally different.

I'm disappointed that she never wants to be a Hogwarts character for Halloween. Every year, I try and persuade her. I'm all like, look! Cool cape! School tie! Pointy black hat (a proven fashion fave)! But the only girl character in HP that's worth being is Hermione Granger - and Bunny doesn't like Emma Watson's hair. So that's that.

Speaking of Hogwarts, look what I saw at Chaos Theory: page after page of Snape-jones. It seems that thousands of grown women really have a thing for Severus Snape. They create webrings and all these virtual shrines in their obsession.

Not that I blame them. I've written a little Snape fan fic myself, you know - and it's pretty salacious, so be warned. This is how it goes: I am an attractive young teacher who has just taken a job at Hogwarts. Snape is assigned to give me a thorough school orientation. We walk the entire length of the castle, talking ... alone together ... until ...

Snape: And finally, we come to the dungeons. Er - mind the swamp.

Pam: It’s so spooky! Hold me!

Snape: Miss, kindly remove your hands from inside my robes.

Pam: Say, is that a bottle of verataserum, or are you just happy to …

::POOF:: [Snape turns Pam into a ferret.]

Could be worse: lemme know when you find gay male fan fic about Argus Filch and then we can cancel our subscription to reality!
Or the Creevy Brothers for that matter...

Your nephew has a t-shirt:
"I didn't say it was your fault, I said I'm going to blame you."

Want to borrow it?

What about Ginny Weasley?

She could wear a "Save Ginny Weasley" t-shirt.

Oh my god. That was so delicious. Thanks. Love Snape. Love your fan fic.

[citygirrrl]

thanks for that fabulous fan fic... i'm all hot and bothered now... but glad it's not just me that has a wee thing for Snape (been harbouring that since alan rickman in die hard...). plus it gives me something to drool over now that angel/buffy is over and i don't get to see so much of Spike.

is it wrong to have a crush on Oliver Wood, though?

[pam]

Oh, shoot. She had to go and mention Oliver Wood. He's another story!

[Anthony]

Wrong? Of course it's wrong. He's fictional, you're a blogger. Think of the children.
"Wrong" would really be something on the order of "Grrls for Draco" but--don't tell me--there's already such a site out there. Or erotic fan fic about Neville Longbottom. That pretty much redefines "wrong" both legally and aesthetically.
As for any ff involving Professor Trelwany, Professor Flitwick or Violet the Fat LAdy, I can only offer up a mute prayer to God that such things do not occurr in my lifetime.

[pam]

Ha!! It would serve you right if I now wrote you some hot Prof. Flitwick/Prof. Trelawny fan fic.

[ricky]

Hermione Granger is hot. I'm not talking about Emma Watson. I'm talking about the character in the book.

If I were, you know, a few years younger and totally magical, I'd be all over that.
