Please don't scare away our St. Mungo's employees. We need them. Because of you.
[ Warded to Caleb ]With this temporary living thing going on between us, I think it's only fair that there be complete equality between us. Seeing as we're the opposite sex and all.
That being said, I think you need to accidentally walk out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel now. [ End ward ]

Hello, wizarding world. On a slow work night, I bring to you your weekly (biweekly? monthly? I don't know, I'm starting it now.) dosage of Animal Behavior Stories.
So male peacock spiders have elaborate colorings on their abdomens that they use to raise up and show off to female during courtship season, right? (And apparently, it's always the males that are all colorfully decorated while the females are bland. It's okay. They're spiders. Disgusting to many. I hate them too.) But anyway, they have this hilarious courtship display dance where they pretty much raise their back legs and butts in the hair and shake it back and forth to display the colorings. At least, it's hilarious if you get past the fact that they're spiders.
But it gets better. The best part? If the female doesn't like what she sees, she eats the male. "Nope, I'm not impressed. Your destiny: food, not mate."
If it was such a case with humans, I'm pretty sure there would be less amounts of people making cat-calls in the middle of the streets. THANK MERLIN, right?
I'm craving a taco. And wine
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GIDEON!
[ Warded to Caleb Croaker ]Haven't seen you around, but I can assume where you are right now. Want anything? This book on funky animal behaviors? [ End ward ]

My brother just got himself a puppy. I may bother him more on my days off now.

Since we're talking about deaths from both sides, here, let me contribute a bit too. Let's not stop at just criticizing ONE group in their moral grounds. Let's not look at how ONE group has taken away families and friends. BOTH factions have and it's a loss all the same.
That's right. All the damn same. Some that probably sit there quietly when the Death Eaters make their debut on the wireless... your loss is as painful to bear as it is when I visit my parents' old place and look at the gaping hole that my mother used to occupy, or walk by where Cobblestones used to be that Death Eaters turned into little more than something resembling wood at a campfire after it burned out, which was also a large part of my childhood. Or a large of part of my entire family's memories. If any of you are going to tell me it's not the same because your sibling/parent/child/whatever had better blood than my "filthy-blooded" mother did, sorry to say but it is. OR, you can fuck right off. Family is still family and it hurts. Whether you accept it or not, I really am sorry for your loss, no matter who or what is responsible for it.
Call them terrorists or vigilantes or Wireless-Ruiners, I don't care. I just want this to end, and I know I'm not the only one. There should not be more people losing loved ones earlier than is expected. And seriously.. leave the law-making and "God-playing" to the DMLE or the Healers, for fuck's sakes.
And let me bloody listen to my shows in peace!

There is something to say about the amount of alcohol ingested when your average alcohol-tolerant Irish lass wakes up with a god-awful hangover the next morning after a pub crawl. And the hangover lasts for more than a day.
Likely, what it says is "oh, honey, alcohol's not the problem.. this isn't a hangover you're feeling."
We meet again, Sinus Problems. How I wish I could vanquish you for good.
Either that or I caught it from you, Benjy. If I could, I'd apparate over to kick you.

[ Warded Private ]Hey, so, my no-strings-attached relationship has ended and I'm really in the mood for a shag. Any takers?
added minutes later
Oh, yeah, that's a good one.
I could just focus on that under here and just yell at myself with an "Oh my GOD, what the hell, Emme?! WHAT were you THINKING?"
But that's going to have repercussions on my self-esteem and we just can't have that. So, let's focus on how my current position can be potentially compromised if someone outside of us knows or could be notified in the near future. And seeing that nobody has broken down my door and arrested me, or
No, that's stupid thinking. For all I know, they just might be looking for an opportunity.
All I know is that outside of Benjy, Alice, Frank and Lily, there's no one else. If it seems unlikely that they would, then it could be that they've been coerced to give up information for the sake of safety, or something else. Heck, it could just be Imperius on any of them, even those four. If that's the case and we've not all been silently killed in our own homes yet, then either it IS a mole or the predator is just playing with its food for a bit. Both seem extremely likely.
Oh, yeah, this is a LOT better to think about then Topic A. [ End ward ]
[ Warded to Friends ]So. Some of you knew I was seeing Geoff for about two months. Some of you knew the details on how it was all super casual except for my ever so growing feelings. (And if you forgot, I'm not giving you food anymore.) Well, I made the stupid mistake of actually TELLING him that and instead of the incredibly romantic scene in my head, I got nothing. Silence, shaking of the head, basically a no. I guess that also means an end to it all.
So, that's that. Anyway. Who is up for a pub crawl? I'm on call tomorrow so let's pray there's not a mass hysteria tomorrow where everyone and anyone needs Skele-Gro. [ End ward ]

[ Warded to Sturgis Podmore ]I thought you should know that I saw your sister in Emergencies and Accidents. Though I'm pretty sure that you'll be notified, if not now, then in the next few minutes. But since I'm not in charge of contacting people, you didn't hear it from me. [ End ward ]
Dear Everyone,
Why won't you listen to us? We're only here to help you!
Begging for Love,

[ Warded to R&R ]Night shift for me tomorrow! Sorry, ladies and gents. And that's the same for Saturday's Poker Night, as well. Don't worry, I'm already on figuring out something sweet to bring to next week's meeting in order to make it up you. As usual. [ End ward ]
So, as I am sitting and delightfully indulging in Hot-Healers-watching (yes, I've made it a hobby), this blokes comes up to me and states to me that his patient is in dire need of pain potions. One look at this guy's robes tells me that, well, he's not in uniform if he works here. So I'm trying to get him to give me the name of the patient's condition and any other relevant information and he gives me roundabout answers that aren't exactly answers to my questions. Finally, when I ask him exactly who is he, he goes "I'm my Healer!" Sorry, chap, not working with me. I think the look on my face, however, is enough to tell him that he screwed up because he ran away right after that.
Security should have taken care of him by now. Really, though, the extent some people go to. I still remember this one bloke who tried to flirt with me and reached out as if to hug me when his hand was quite obviously going to the jar of potion ingredients I had in my hand.
On the bright side, at least I can explain to my father that the reason I'm not hitched yet is because it's so difficult to determine who is interested in me solely because they might have an addiction problem and I conveniently have potions.

There's a little disappointment that comes with being on call for St. Patrick's Day weekend but at least I managed to have fun to some extent. Not that I usually aim to get absolutely shit-faced, mind you.
Remember, ladies and gents! Water, not caffeine!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday after, and happy mother's day to all the mothers in the world. You're amazing every single day and your children are very lucky to have you in their lives. You never know when
