I'm having tea. With a marshmallow in. Dangerous!1
Also, I'm going through my desk drawers in preparation for YEAR TWELVE ZOMG. The search, so far, has yielded a box of multicoloured beads, a large amount of entirely not-HSC related paper, which I threw away with relish2, a bizarre plastic artwork which appears to be a waterfall of some kind, my Art of Scientific Explanation rendition of Godzilla3, a plastic bag full of old, broken paintbrushes, a packet of feminine hygiene products4, an evil device of evilly DETH recorder and a birthday present entitled "The Little Box of Spells", which appears to contain the Tweenie's Guide To Being Pretentiously Wiccan. I've just as little idea what to do with that as I had when I got it. You can't just throw away a birthday present - and besides, it's all shiny and... shiny. And my family has an ingrained tendency to not throw things away when they're new and shiny5. Also, it contains ribbons and string, which could come in handy, and a bookmark, which... well, probably won't, given that I have many many bookmarks which do not tell me that everything I wish will come to pass if I call upon the spirits present and the elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water6 to bring about what I desire. And it'll be good to have incense and a little purple candle of suspicious origin lying around my room, just in case I'm not fulfilling my Rebellious Teenager quota.
The Little Book of Spells, though, is completely useless. Anyone want some magic? ...or firelighters?
(I'm in a footnotey kind of mood. Could you tell?)
1By which I mean fizzy.
2And mustard.
3"RRRARRR KRRRILL. ...PHRRRYS-ICS? *DED*"
4So THAT'S where those got to...
5Or ever.
6And Arsenic... can you call upon that through the mail or is that anthrax?
