We're nearing the time of year that always makes me wish my career allowed me more time off for the summer. Instead, we find ourselves busier than ever when the weather is about to start turning around. I'm not sure how I would survive if we weren't underground.

[April 01] |
This is the one day of the year when I find it tiring to work in an office environment. I consider myself lucky that no one in my department decided to flood my office with water, fill it with feathers or balloons, or switch my drawers around, or what have you.
Please don't get any ideas.
Or if you do, please make it unique.

[December 18] |
I meant to write about my newborn son a few days ago, but those of you who have children, or have been around infants at all, will know that when there's an infant in the house, sleep is hard to come by.
Which of course in turn makes me forgetful.
What I meant to say a few days ago is that there is nothing in this world - to my knowledge - quite like the way it feels when you become a parent, whether it's for the first time or the second. This time around was no less special than the first, no less remarkable and impressive and terrifying, even though I knew what to expect this time.
Now, he's asleep in his room and I'm sitting in a chair beside him, watching him and writing here. I'm thinking about the uncle he'll never know beyond our memories, and for the first time in a month and a half I feel like we're going to be fine.
Warded Private:
Note to self: try to decide if how you feel about the use of the Unforgivables outweighs the legal objections you've come up with while sitting awake in the middle of the night. Write more of those down. Tempted to say that how I feel outweighs anything else, but I realise my perspective is clouded. What to do now? Not sure.

Warded to Family; Molly & Arthur, Andromeda & Ted, Charity, Doc, Sloane, Augustus & Diedre, Gawain:
Sarah's in labour. Finally. Nearly thought this day would never come.
Don't worry about Lizzie, my parents are watching her for now. More later.
