Triskaidekaphobia!

Snope.com has some fun information about Friday the 13th if anyone is interested.

I've usually had good days when it was Friday the 13th.

Superstitions are funny. I like Terry Pratchett's idea of "substitions" - things that do exist but people don't believe in it.

Here is a photo of Charlie at the Air Victory Museum. He is saluting like a British soldier, for some reason.

And here is a photo of my very handsome 16 year old nephew, Aaron. Isn't he adorable?



I am rereading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and I noticed the Lovegoods are mentioned in passing - Arthur asks Amos Diggery if anyone else is coming, and Amos says that the Lovegoods left a week ago. So Luna lives in the same neighborhood, or near the same neighborhood, as the Weasleys. Not important or anything, but I thought I'd mention it. This is why I like JK Rowling so much. Her attention to detail is astounding.

And Veelas are such Mary Sues. Makes me laugh.

I am trying to finish an essay that I am going to submit for possible inclusion in a book about Autism. It's due by Sunday, though, and I don't know if I'm going to make it. Wish me luck.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix the text on my Live journal? For some reason I get little boxes instead of words on Live Journal. Not in my entries but on the page itself. It is very annoying.

It looked fine to me. You might want to check the language settings on your browser. Sometimes just having the wrong English selected can screw with a page.

Thank you. I finally figured out what was wrong. For some reason I didn't have English checked as the language. It is working now. I feel so dumb! :)
