10 Hard Questions from the Sorting Hat (Harry Potter)
Congratulations Ravenclaw! Yours is the house of thoughtful contemplation and strong individualism. Oh, yes, and cleverness, but not necessarily as an end in itself. You believe the unexamined life isn't worth living, and you won't simply accept something someone else tells you without due consideration. You have a horror of being herded, and you prize your powers of discernment. People who act thoughtlessly annoy you But sometimes you go too far the other way and may prize being different just to be different. Far be it from you to like what everyone else does! You can also become amputated at the neck, resisting your feelings and gut-level responses -- distrusting them or not being sure what to do with them. You may think you don't need friends. Beware of becoming the (cool-headed) rebel without a cause! Historical analogy: Emmanuel Kant

On a complete different note,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jedirita came up on Friday night and the three of us (she, MDH, and I) cooked dinner together and hung out, and then Rita showed me some of her favorite Xena episodes. She left me the first two seasons of Xena in exchange for the first two seasons of Angel. And she taught us how to make samosas -- yum.
I hosted a fandom meet-up today at my house, and we had a blast! We watched Velvet Goldmine (worth it for the Ewan McGregor/JRM action alone), Sex, Politics, & Cocktails (a coming-out indie film that I don't think anyone else had seen), and the first episode of the UK Queer as Folk (and some of the folks there had never seen any QAF, so that was fun). We ran out of time before we could get to Damon & Hunter, but we'll just have to save it for another time. It was one of the biggest crowds we've had yet at a local meet-up, withjedirita, phaballa, stargategirl82, complete, maybe_someday8, aluinnsearlait and her friend Sara, whose LJ name I didn't catch, stephanometra, anoneknewmoose and prestonsbarr. That's almost a third of the folks on the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hp_centraltx comm, so it was a good turnout! MDH was quite patient for someone whose home had been taken over by fangirls for the day. But at this point, he's pretty much used to it. ;-)
