Hit the snooze

Well guess who overslept and didn't get any DDR in? WAH! I played Spin the Disc on Heavy mode last night and passed! I didn't think I would do as well as I did. I was so in the zone last night. I was on beat and had the rhythm in my veins. But I also had the WarCraft 3 in my veins so I had to cut it short on the DDR and go beat my latest campaign. It took nearly 3 hours and I finally had to decide to kamikaze it. Tichondrius has an ability to eradicate a unit with a wave of a hand. That's harsh. Finally took him out. I felt bad for Illidan for being banished. Furion wasn't so forgiving when it came to his brother. Wonder what Illidan did... It's come to my attention, though, that I haven't played Frozen Throne so I'm going to have to pick that up and play it. I wonder when I'll have time for Jak and Daxter. Soon, precious, soon. I'm hoping to leave a little bit early from work tonight and head on down to Celebration Station and try some DDR. The DDR kids will probably be down there, but luckily the presence of a person in a furry costume does keep some kids away. I really want to go to the mall. I miss 7th mix. I need some Trance de Janiero! Must have the jumping. I want to try a minute again. That's one of my favorite songs, but it is too slow to play on Standard and yet I can't pass it on Heavy. My Sweet Darlin' is the same way. Although I love the corny side to side steps on Standard, it is too slow (not enough steps). Heavy mode My Sweet Darlin' kills me though. Failed! every time.

Reading Prisoner of Azkaban after reading Goblet of Fire and The Order of the Phoenix is confusing me!! I think I need to pick up PS/SS read it, then go to CoS, then PoA. I'm confused as far as what action has and has not happened. I need to become more well versed. At least I can be thankful for no slash. NO SLASH in this book. Black doesn't contact Lupin. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *derranged look* Err...yeah.

Thoughts as I am rereading PoA. When I originally read this book, I read it through in a hurry to have it finished before GoF. I didn't get into the details. I don't even really know why. I just felt like PoA was trying to be ambiguous while giving all of these details which spelled it out for you so blatantly it took away the fun and I was glad to be finished with PoA. It was funnier and not nearly as much Dobby as CoS which is good in my book. But the dementors added a gloom that I wasn't comfortable with...I just really don't remember what it was about PoA that made it less enjoyable. But reading it now, I have observations I want to jot down:

I didn't understand why Fudge was being so nice to Harry. I fell for the idea that Harry was famous so maybe Fudge wanted to look out for him. It never occurred to me that Fudge was using Harry as bait. He set him up in the Leaky Cauldron to lure Black into contacting Harry. Were Black to make contact, Fudge would be the heroic Minister of Magic who recaptured the insane criminal. How very bureaucratic! I like it.

Had to stop reading for lunch, breaks, and to get back to work (got a call). More on my PoA observations when I further in. Can't wait for Dumbledore.

PUNKY! Update, I miss you. lol
