alt_lavenderArgh!
Mummy is being an absolute nutter! I don't understand it.
So, she mentioned in her last private message to me that Lovegood had asked to stay on at Hogwarts over the hols, and I was thinking, hurrah! That's the most sensible idea the girl has had in, oh, ever.
She gets to stay and muck stalls with Professor Brutka, and I don't have to look at her blank expression across the breakfast table every morning and worry that she'll say something mortifying at our holiday party. Everyone's happy!
So I said as much to Mummy and she said no, Lovegood has to come back because leaving her at Hogwarts would 'give the wrong impression.'
And, she said we all have to go to the viewing of Black's corpse--apparently it would, you guessed it, 'give the wrong impression' if we weren't there.
I don't see why, as everyone knows we're loyal, but there's no reasoning with her. Mothers!
Oh, and I thought you two would want to know that people have been asking Parvati and me all day if we did the quiz and we haven't given away a thing! So there, Belinda!

Sometimes I feel like I ought to start looking out for something brave and heroic to do, so that people will start seeing Gryffindor in a better light.
As in, not the House of hotheaded idiots.

And Thomas. I'm still not sure I believe him when he says he hates muggles. But at least he's not quite so uptight as he used to be. I dunno. We'll see him here and there at hols and maybe he'll be less prone to fly off the handle. Like a hotheaded idiot Gryffindor. :)
