Strange Going-ons

I told sonya about most of these but here are the latest assimilations with harry potter and real life.

My cat found a black snake over the weekend, i called it the Basilisk.

There was this hugongous (bigger than humongous and gigantic) spider in our house, i called it Aragog.

I saw a girl's shirt where part of it read "---on *and then under it* --alley". I thought nu uh Diagon Alley! it was silicon valley.

Costco had a surfboard/bodyboard section. on one of the boards it said "---bolt". Aah it's a Firebolt! Nope, thunderbolt.

I saw a broom in my kitchen and had the sudden urge to ride it. (i managed to resist).

that's all i can think of at the moment. :)
