The Week Thus Far!
Fannish News: Snarry-A-Thon has started posting over at

snape_potter and it's a blast so far! I never read all the fics in any one fest, mostly because ~~I'm a big wimp~~ I like happy ending stuff, but I've enjoyed several stories in the fest so far. If you have any recs/pimps, feel free to leave them here. I reserve the right to giggle if you rec my own story to me…

Gadget News: I got a new phone! A Samsung Alias, with a qwerty keyboard! Anyone who knows how much I text will know how cool this is for me! Oh, and it has a camera and internet access and all that but a qwerty keyboard! ♥

Visiting: As is becoming a delightful habit, despite the fact that we live in different states, I spent a lovely day with

cruisedirector and her family at the amazing Delaware du Pont estates Winterthur an American antiques museum/estate and Longwood, just down the road with a conservatory that could have doubled as the Garden Of Eden!

Birthdays: Happy Birthday

shezan and

angela_snape!

	Oh, wow, thanks for all the thoughtful recs! I've read them all so far except The Plant, which I will definitely make time for! We seem to have the same taste in fic! :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giggles Well, it was pretty cool that you recced stories that I saw and said, Mmm that sounds like something I'd like! I didn't read the plant one because it looked a little weird,but if you say it's good, I'm happy to give it a try! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, do! And then please tell me if you agree. Trying to make recs is wildly hard, I think. But I'd love to get some "calibration".

And yes, actually, my thoughts were very much the same first impression. One of BZUH. TALKING PLANT!?!? It was honestly only seeing it referred to as a "Giftiger lautsprecher" in the summary that pulled me in. Literacy is never a bad sign.

Plus, a plant that insists it's Severus Snape? Too intriguing to pass by... you never know when you're going to find another fic with the quality, kink, and creativity of "Inanimagus"!

	I read The Plant last night, and you were absolutely right! It was a delightful read. I thought the end game was a little weak--I expected a bit more reaction out of Snape but otherwise just a delightful story! (Reply to this) (Parent)
