People test-drive new cars with their hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel, at least the ones who drive down Miller Street.

I sat on the porch and smoked a cigarette, and the whole time there was a silver minivan in the Press Republican just sitting there, someone in it, waiting as if to turn... but not going anywhere. I bet they were spying on me. Now they know I'm watching them back. xD

What I need right now is a magic wand. If I could just wingardium leviosa my laundry behind me, I could get that done in no time. As it stands, I'm short on boxes to put clothes in, and shorter still on patience and strength to haul them down the street. >>



I finally got this off my camera and fixed it up. xD My 95 year old Poppy and Isabella, the 10 month old daughter of my stepgrandmother's daughter-- which makes her a stepcousin, I guess, but I consider her mom to be my cousin, so Isabella is... a second cousin? Whatever she is, she's freaking adorable. xD These are the extremes of age in my family on either end, and Poppy and Bella spend a lot of time together.

And now that I have that done, I am almost ready to send my mother her Mom's Day stuff. >>
