Seems like everywhere you turn catastrophe reigns

I've been absolutely horrendous about blogging lately but basically what I've done is see "Les Miserables" with my mom and see "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" at 12:01 AM after waiting 10 hours outside with my friends.  I've bought some stuff for school but not nearly enough, and I've got The Odyssey sitting on my desk taunting me, but I haven't started it yet and it's nearly 500 pages and so I really should start it soon because I've got barely a month left.  I've been watching a lot of Hugh Grant movies as well as a lot of "Psych" and I haven't been reading nearly as much as I should be.  Right now I'm listening to a Sansa Stark fanmix and it's fantastic and I love fanmixes so much because they tell stories and also expose me to music that I wouldn't normally listen to and also I think getting music from strangers is the best way to get to know them; does that make any sense?

Tonight Mom and I are seeing a musical called "Fleetwood Macbeth" and it should be sufficiently bizarre.  Gillian gets home tomorrow and even though she's going to be grumpy for at least 24 hours, I'm really glad she's getting home because I miss her and she hasn't written my nearly enough letters.

I'm full of a zillion emotions regarding Harry Potter and the end and all that but basically what it comes down to is that I feel like there's a little hole in my heart now where these characters and their stories have forever buried inside.  I didn't cry much during the movie (besides when Harry entered the forest with the resurrection stone and his parents and Sirius and Lupin joined him) but afterward, yesterday and now, I've been looking at pictures and reading others' thoughts and I guess what I'm really going to miss is the whole community that loves it so much and constantly thinks about it all and argues over it and debates what's coming, because what's coming isn't much.  And that's the sad part, I think.

I only have two more songs left on this mix and I'm going to finish listening to it and then I'm going to take a shower and blow out my hair straight because I never do that and it's summer and why not?
