Self-Realization

Over the weekend, I learned something about myself. You know those times when you react to something small, and realize that's how you always react to similar situations (big or small), and wham, a character trait you never knew you had is suddenly there before your eyes? That you're THAT type of person?

Well, that happened to me. Something happened, I reacted, and realized what that meant about my personality. This surprised me, I thought it over, and decided to blog about it.

Trouble is, I can't recall what it was! Must have been quite the realization, huh?

Worlds Colliding

I had this idea probably 6 years ago, while emailing my BFF instead of working, about the next Harry Potter book that was coming out shortly. We were debating all the possibilities of what the next book could entail, what would happen, etc, etc. This was our idea of What Would Happen Next:

Harry will meet Voldemort and they'll fight, and Voldemort will suddenly declare that Snape was Harry's father - Snape always loved Lily and had tempted her away from James for a short bit, but she went back to James, even though he was not the father of her child. Harry will run off, scared and confused to the swampy Degabond System (same planet the Weasley's live on) and there Dumbledore will teach Harry more about the force, and show him the way.

Then Ron & Hermoine would get together, because Hermoine is the smart, magical one, and Han So-, I mean Ron is the humerous one. The Weasley twins hang out w/ them occasionally, making odd sounds, and Ron's response is always "You said it, Chewy".

Harry will be tempted by the Dark Side, in an attempt to bring his mother back, but will have learned enough magic and knowledge to know that path leads to no good. He'll be angry at Snape, but try to convince him Voldemort is evil, and not the person to follow. Snape will appreciate the effort, and say so, which'll fix Harry's father issues, and he'll never be conflicted again. Snape will also tell him that Harry & Hermoine are twins, seperated at birth, with Hermoine hidden in a Muggle family.

Ron & Hermoine will have lots of babies who are funny AND fabulous at magic - they'll look like Ewoks, rule the world, and amuse people w/ stories of their parents and their parent's friends who saved the world way back in the day from the clutches of Darth Vader.
