There's so much to look forward to over hols, it's getting rather hard to concentrate on revising for Herbology tomorrow. I don't think I realised just how much I enjoyed Christmas at Gloss House until we spent hols at Hogwarts last term. I'm very much looking forward to celebrating Christmas with Ewan for the first time, and I just know the annual Christmas party will be wonderful.

Daphne, I'm waiting with baited breath for the cast list -- so many talented people came out for it, I'd imagine they had some hard choices to make, and it'll be ever so much fun to rehearse. I've got several of the arrangements mostly sorted out the way I'd like them, but they'll have to be adjusted depending on who's been cast and what their ranges are. But the chorus bits are coming right along, and I can't wait to have the time to really properly work on them over hols.

You lot have something planned with Diggory, don't you?

I don't suppose you can tell?

And if you'd please hit Ron upside the head, he's being a right idiot about Sally-Anne.

I can't believe that in two days, it'll have been a year since the Yule Ball.

That it will. Quite something, hey?

You don't mind that we'll be at my parent's party instead, do you? It seems that Professor Dolohov has already booked my dance card, you know.

From:

I'm glad it'll be at the party, because everyone will be happy and look wonderful, and that tends to make everything feel a bit more special than usual. But I do hope we'll get some time to ourselves.

I may have to rip you away from dear Professor Dolohov for a dance or two.

From:

I hope we do too, though I'll be expected to say Hello, at bare minimum, to every single person there. Who knows how long that will take, but at some point everyone will be too drunk to remember.

"Rip?" Sounds violent. Make sure it doesn't harm the exquisite line of my dress robes.

I'll be sure to spin you a bit while I do, so as to make sure you display at your best.

We ought to come up with a rating scale of drunkenness and adjust our hellos appropriately, where maximal drunkenness leads to either maximal cheekiness and inappropriate questions, or the shortest Hello we can manage, depending on the person in question.

How well is this rating system going to work when we get to the point where we, too, are completely pissed?

I'm planning on trying, anyway. I think I might actually be old enough now where people won't actually care, even if they do catch me.

From:

I'm all for getting a bit funny, as long as we don't vom. I'd really rather avoid that.

Perhaps we should come up with a competing scale, then, so that we only try to be cheeky when we can remember what we've said, and if everything starts seeming far too silly to bear, we'll just have to sneak away for a bit until the general level of drunkenness raises to the point where no-one will notice.
