Quidditch=awesome. I so wish I could have been there.

Your tendency to jump to the worst-case scenario cannot possibly rival my mother’s. To wit: she once tried to call me (in Toronto) from Vancouver the day I was flying to BC to see her. She phoned AFTER we’d already left for the airport, but due to some freaky phone problem on our end, she got a busy signal. For an hour. So she immediately assumes we’ve had a burglar that bludgeoned us nearly to death and we’re lying in a pool of blood and before losing consciousness managed to reeeeeaaaach up and knock the phone off the hook. She calls my work but no one knew our schedule. She calls our apartment building managers who refuse to enter without giving us 24 hours notice. She calls the police (!!!) who tell her to wait a while longer before calling back. She calls the airline, who refuses to tell her whether we’re on the flight. She calls Leonard’s parents and freaks them out. Then calls the airline again and someone finally takes pity on her and tells her that as the plane has already landed it would be okay to tell her that we were on the plane. THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER. NOoooooo. She then figures that the thief bludgeoned us AND STOLE OUR TICKETS and flew to Vancouver. By the time I called her later that day she was in quite a state. Why that woman hasn’t dropped with a myocardial infarction due to severe stress is beyond me.

You know, I saw you mention Quidditch on Twitter and I thought “how cool!” not actually thinking about the LOGISTICS, what with the whole NO FLYING BROOMS THING.

Wow. I’d like to see it in person now.

Sam is just so adorable! Even when she’s screaming!

I love that I look at these pictures and think, “egads! That baby is huge! She looks like a toddler!” and then remember that my baby, just about 8 months, is possibly huger, and this is what people think about us, particularly when strangers tell me that my baby’s and my heads are the same size.

Also, “egads! That baby is CUTE!”

Who says this generation will contribute nothing to society? Clearly they’ve given us Quidditch and I, for one, am very grateful. Now, I can tell my kids when they’re in college that I remember the first time I ever heard of the Quidditch conference (I’m sure by then there will be scholarships and TV coverage & everything!) and I’ll begin to regale them with the time in 2009 I called in sick to work, stayed home and read the Jonniker blog and learned of the new sport. Then, I will promptly give your dog props for stealing the breast pump. See? You’ll go down in infamy!!

Uh, Quidditch? QUIDDITCH? REALLY? Whoa now. I mean, I was a huge fan of Harry Potter (HUGE), but come on people.

That Quidditch thing is TEH AWESOME! I would so be a season-ticket-holder.

But then, I’m already planning my trip to Orlando for when Hogwarts opens at Universal Studios, so maybe I’m just exceptionally nerdy.

LOVE the pictures. You look fantastic, and Sam is adorable as always.
