it’s strange, having people from anderson in my house. it’s not a common occurance by any means, i can assure you. in the time of a few short hours, we accomplished more than i could have hoped for.

• introduction to that which is Degrassi. it was the one where the girl that had the baby when she was like 13 wanted to be a model even though all the models were dressed like someone’s mom but it’s canada whatreyagonna do right? i know so she sleeps with some guy and he’s like ok you can be a model. it’s in canada.
• downtown pittsburgh, driving in from the ft pitt tunnel. the proper way n’at.
• andy warhol museum. this presented a dilemma which i will expand on further at some point in the future. but it was rearranged entirely from the last time i visited and i liked the pieces they chose to display better this time around, i think. especially the marlene dietrich concert projected in a million tiny floating videos from a disco ball. and i wanted to own the gift shop.
• ikea, including ikea food. which is good. cheap and designy. the gd department would have given this trip an a+.
• kennywood, nightriders (going after 5 pm so we could get in cheaper)! it was crowded, the weekend + fireworks night making it less easy to get on all the rides than last time. i made phyllis go in the fron seat her first phantom ride and it did freak her out. but in a good way.
• potato patch fries. first thing. awesome.
• getting mistaken for twins (again) because “y’all are both wearin purple”. i don’t know whether i like this or not, i guess sometimes i do because it’s fun in that way when you were in grade school and you and your best friend pretended to be sisters and dressed alike.
• eat n’ park. phyllis was excited to go here more than i think anyone has been in the history of going to eat n’ park. we had coffee and molten lava cakes, but missed out on smiley cookies.
• watching the twilight rifftrax and reading the best worst quotes people’d put up from the books. phyllis knew that twilight was lame, that doesn’t take much, but she hadn’t actually been exposed to the ~*acting*~ from the movies, or real ~*writing*~.
• and this morning we started the morning right by busting out some saved by the bell before i dropped her off.

THIS CANNOT BE!” she shouted angrily. “THE SCHOOL MUST BE CLOSED!”

“THE BARK LORD IS PLANNING TO KILL THE STUDENTS!” yelled Cornelia Fudge.
“YOU ARE NOT FIT TO BE THE PRINCIPAL ANY LONGER!” yelled Rumbridge. “YOU ARE TOO OLD AND YOUR ALZHEIMERS IS DANGEROUS! YOU MUST RETRY OR VOLDEMORT WILL KILL YOUR STUDENTS!”

“Very well.” Dumbledore said angrily. “Butt we cannot do this. We can’t close the school. There is only one person who is capable of killing Voldemort and she is in the school. And her name is………………………………………………………………….. Enony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way.”

Draco, Crab, Goyle, Darkness, Willow, Vampire and B’loody Mary looked at each other………I gasped.
