If you happen to be feeling sorry for yourself because you don't have a Valentine, keep in mind that there are more kinds of love than simply the romantic type. Play fetch with your dog. Have dinner with your mum. Have a lads' night in with your best mate. Purchase a box of chocolate covered strawberries and share them with your co-workers. Get a bottle of your favorite wine and drink it while you take a long, hot bath all by yourself.

If you love someone - no matter who it is or what kind of love it may be - tell them. Because you never know when the opportunity to do so could be taken away from you forever.

Since this is only my first Christmas/New Year working at St Mungos this may seem like old news to the rest of you, but it definitely seems like people get sick and/or injured more often during this time of year than any other. I swear, I've seen more people come in limping or vomiting in the past two weeks than I have in all of the months that I've worked here.

Happy New Year to everyone, even though I'm a few days late with this. I spent New Year's Eve playing "I Never" with my brother. It made me feel like I was seventeen again. Yet reminded me that I'm not getting any younger. I had a good time until Anya decided that she wanted to get into the rubbish bin. It was no fun cleaning up that mess with a belly full of penne ala vodka, tiramisu and red wine. No fun at all.

What are you doing for for Christmas, wherever you are?

[private to self:
I had a dream last night that I was a vampire. At first I was happy about it. I liked the strength I had, and the new feeling of power I possessed. But then time flew by and I was left by myself after all of my loved ones died, and I couldn't bear it. I woke up in a cold sweat and felt so overwhelmingly sad that I was depressed for the entire day.

I would rather die tomorrow then out-live those that I love.

Thinking about the upcoming holiday is making me depressed as well. I don't like the thought of missing yet another Christmas in France. I've spent so many holidays there that celebrating here just doesn't feel right.

[/private]

I want it to snow. I want to go out into my backyard and build a snowman, and then watch as my dogs (who absolutely adore the snow) knock it down while they're playing. I can't be mad at them for it. They're both far too adorable for me to ever get angry with them.

I hope November turns out to be a good month. Not that October was bad, but it could have been better.

In honor of the most glorious day of my birth, I'll be spending my evening at the Leaky. Come down and have a drink with me.

You may have mentioned this to me before, but I can't remember at the moment. Has anyone ever tried to use Occlumancy on you?

[hexed private to Mili]

I'm thinking that you and I should go out again.

My girls told me to tell you that they send their love to your boy.

I have a new job, so that means I have time to play with my dogs, exercise, read... Maybe I'll even start dating again. I'm going to miss the shoppe and everyone I worked with, but I do believe I'm going to love working at the hospital so much more.

Life is mostly good again.

I need a new job.

Don't get me wrong, I love the shoppe. But I spend so much of my time working at this point that it feels like it's all I ever do. The problem is that I'm not really qualified to do anything other than ride around on a broomstick and toss a Quaffle about. I now regret never having taken my N.E.W.Ts.

Such a shame I wasn't born rich as well as beautiful.

Or pureblood. It would have been wonderful if I had been born a pureblood. Life would be just wonderful and absolutely peachy.

hexed very private to Luna Lovegood:

Did you find D'artagnan?

I've been looking around since we last spoke, and while I haven't found a spell that prevents a dog's collar from coming off, I did find one that would keep him in a designated area.

Slipped getting out of the shower. Was dragged down the street when I took Camilla and Anya for their walk. Spent the morning in the hospital because I had a shard of broken glass in my knee, and then when I finally made it to work, a display came crashing down upon my head after a young boy, who was running amok through the shoppe, bumped into it.

When I finally get home I am going to enjoy a bottle of wine and read a book in an attempt to salvage what should have been a perfectly decent day. I also plan on trying my damnedest not to break any bones, since that seems very likely today.

But hope is like a piece of string when you're drowning. It just isn't enough to get you out by itself.


No. I didn't come up with that on my own.

private to Roger:

What do you say we get some of our Quidditch mates together and challenge one of the French teams to a match?

I miss Quidditch.

private to Cliff, Miles, Adrian, Roger, Millicent, and Marcus:

I've decided that it would be a good idea if I go to Russia to give the bitch my blessing in person, and I'm inviting all of you along to share in the joy. Her wedding is in June, but I thought that we could go sometime in the end of May. We will stay at my old house (with her and her latest victim) and be there for maybe four days.

There are more details I need to work out, but this is what I have thus far.

It's going to be so much fun.
/private

Twenty-five years old, and my mum still expects me to hunt for Easter Eggs in the garden. I think she needs grandchildren.

I received a letter from my ex-wife this morning, informing me that she is getting remarried in June and asking me for my blessing.

I'm having trouble deciding if she is merely as stupid as she looks, or if she's just that fucking sadistic.

I want to get Eloise a bunny rabbit. I think she would love it.

I figured that I should ask your thoughts on the matter before I went out and got one for her.

I complimented a woman on her thighs today. She slapped me. My face still stings a little. If I had said that to an Italian woman, she would have just quelled me with a look more powerful than a slap. A simple compliment isn't worthy of such violence.

I couldn't help but notice, however, that she looked rather smug as she was stomping away from me.

You know Gavin much better than I do. He wasn't all right in his journal post, was he? I'm not being nosy, only concerned.

Anyway. I decided that I will take one of the puppies. I'd prefer a female. Let me know when you want the money.

hexed private to friends:

Anastasia or Svetlana. Which of those names do you prefer?

/hex

It's very good to know that, in case Quidditch never comes back, I could always take a job as a janitor.

I never quite understood why people bother making resolutions at the start of a new year. One, they are so easy to break unless you truly commit yourself to them (which hardly anyone ever does). Two, by making resolutions, you're basically saying that there is something wrong with yourself.

I suppose if I had to make one resolution, it would be to enjoy myself as much as possible. That one is damn near unbreakable.
