So this is the conversation I had in my car tonight while driving a friend/co-worker home from an arduous evening of serving (and yes...yes I did just pull out the vocab. "arduous").
(Reaching to hold the dangling pendant from my rearview mirror)...
Fe: "This is cute, what is it?"
Me: "It's a golden snitch. Well a golden snitch missing a wing."
Fe: "I like it."
Me: "Yeah... It helps remind me that life could be worse. I mean at least I don't have Lord Voldemort chasing after me."
Fe: (Giggling) "Well that's good. You wouldn't want Voldemort chasing after you."
Me: (Laughing) "Though come to think of it, with the way things have been going with the guys I've been dating, it's like they're Voldemort in disguise."
Fe: "At least they're not trying to kill you."
Me: (Staring at the one winged Golden Snitch) "You know it's just that every now and then the scar twinges a bit."
Fe and Me: (Roaring laughter)
Yes people, I can make an analogy to Harry Potter with anything. And I must say, life is better for it!
