It's starting to be debilitating. I have been reading theatresm's Chaos is Come Again compulsively since I discovered it last week. I have not been posting in LJ! I have not been writiing HP fic! (Indeed, this other HP world has so sucked me into its thrall that I have been unable even to fantasise about HP fic...) My sex life has been affected by shameless ruminations along the Chaos line (t'h, luckily, is surprised by very little these days...). And I may hate WIPs from here to kingdom come (pun fully intended -- smell the cheese!) because they can be so moreish and it's like eating too many Gummibärchen all at once (I'm reminded of the time when all the students at my German uni went on strike and we had councils and strike meetings and a party where you could win Gummibärchen if you guessed the right number in the jar -- and I guessed it and won two fucking binbags full of Gummibärchen. That cured me.)

I will simply have to finish the damn thing -- no, I can't finish it because here's another reason to hate WIPs: they're never bloody finished! (I should know; I've got two WIPs pending.) And once I have resurfaced and resumed the normal semblance of my life, I shall take a week to absorb the WIP into my bloodstream and decide whether it is really febulous or just very, very good. It has its flaws but despite me noticing the flaws and swearing at all the spelling mistakes (argh), I'm still hooked and print out in obsessive manner and even read in the bath, indeed: even take a bath instead of a shower for the precise reason that I cannot read in the shower.

And all my birthday books! Lying fallow! *sniff*



In other news: am very excited because am going to Veer-Zaara tonight, the new hit by Yash Chopra who hasn't made a movie in six years, and it's got an all-star cast, headed by Shah Rukh Khan (swoon) and Preity Zinta (cute) and Rani Mukherjee (a bit of a wooden stick but gorgeous to look at), and it's about Pakistani/Indian relations and partition (and I swoon when Bollywood goes all political), and I'm luring a friend into going. Will also take blithesea's Lakritzchen along (I still have a large supply).



In still other news, here's a question for all the HP people out there:

Is Dudley stupid? And Draco, is Draco a little slow? Possibly stupider than Dudley?

And here's another question:

Does Dudley have straight or curly hair? Is there some canon contradiction? (Canontradiction?)


And yes, this is the only genuine lj-cut that actually has anything behind it. All others are just there to provide formatting variety of the blue kind.
