the dark mark

had a blast with face painting at the potterparty.hillarygayle's prediction that the dark mark would become one of my biggest requests that night came true. there was also lots of painting house symbols, owls, snitches, lightening bolt scars, etc. lots of good times.
when someone first requested the dark mark, i had to think fast to design one! i then just kept repeating the design for the rest of the night. one kid came back and had me do one on his other arm, too! o.0 i guess he wanted to be twice as bad as everyone else.

the kids kept me busy right up until...about 10-15 minutes 'til midnight. very busy. helped clean up a bit so got home later, aroun 1-1:30. read until 4 am, collapsed into sleep, woke at 11 and finished at 5pm yesterday. been rereading bits because i know i read it too fast!

only bad bit about the potterparty was i couldn't hang out-i was too busy. at least the painting was fun. i did feel i goofed some of the painting up, but no one complained, which means to me that everyone was satisfied.

called ladykeats and we gabbed and gabbed about HP7. we both agreed that it was a roller coaster type of book. 8^) i want to read it again.

alas, my digital camera is still missing. no photos from me. i was too busy to take them anyway.
will post links to the fun when i find them. please tell me, hillarygayle, that you have photos! please! what about you, asqmh?

edit: forgot to mention, the subject line is lyrics from philosopherock's very funny "the real mad-eye moody." go get their cd!
