Well, hell.
Tuesday
Some Death Eater or amazingly un-funny person decided it would be a good time to send up a Dark Mark early this morning. Fabulous. I'm dead tired; been up patrolling all morning.
On the bright side, I ran into Viola and got to really talk to her (after McGonagall gave me a stern look and an eyebrow raise for lord knows what).
It makes me nauseous. Viola asked me how I was and I really have two reactions. On the one hand, I think I may be dealing well with.. everything.. because I'm not home yet. I'm still in the normal routine. I don't really have to deal with it. I'm sure it will hit a little more during the summer. Ugh, the summer. I don't even know if I have a home to go to; Petunia has it I know I'm not welcome with her. It's beside the point.
On the other hand, I don't think moping is the solution. These people are insane and powerful and need to be taken down. They killed my parents. Writing that is strange. I never get to see them again, all because someone who did something like last night decided it would be fun to flash their little symbol and take the lives of people who did nothing, nothing, to deserve it. Really, when it comes down to it, I think I've chosen anger - or at least the pro activeness that comes with anger. I'm going to hit them where it hurts and in the mean time... well, they say outlook is important so if I stay brave enough, I'll be brave and not just heart broken.
