I'm back...

From Hogwarts. Laugh it up Literati and Cynics alike. I've been busy. Reading the Harry Potter series. As much as I'd love to be an elitist and say it's all rubbish, I'd like more to say that I'm a human being. They're really wonderful books. Or at least wonderful characters. And a wonderful world. And that's what she does so well, create a world within a world. And for me it is enough to forgive her sometimes blockish and rough writing. And, to be frank, I didn't want to leave. I got home yesterday and saw the book I had finished the night before sitting on my ottoman and I'll admit, I did get a little sad. But it's not like post-Avatar depression (I didn't see the movie) where this world is so gray and drab that I couldn't get out of bed this morning. I mean, today IS gray (or grey!) and drab, but I managed to crawl out of bed regardless.

Where was I? Ah. It's nice to imagine that there's a little magic in the world. I know exactly how cheesy that sounds. And I don't care. Is it so bad to hope for a world good triumphs evil?
