Replacing stuff actually is fun.  That little voice in my head that
usually comes with me when I go shopping and says, "Kelly, you don't
really need that" has taken a little vacation.  Cute shoes?  Well, I
need new ones.  Great outfit?  Yup, need that too.  Flat-screen TV? 
Well, as long as I'm buying a new one...

I'll be staying in the same general area, since my job is still here.
 But right now, finding a place is the most difficult step.  There
simply aren't any spare apartments or houses to rent.  In my office
alone, 488 families out of about 1000 lost their homes.  Multiply that
out to the whole community, and, well, it's definitely a seller's market.

I've posted another picture, of me in (or rather under, since I was on
the second floor), my apartment.  I think the term "flat" is
definitely appropriate here.

I've emailed them to you.  And here are the comments to go along with it:

3.15.1 Hogwarts
---------------
Originally: 48
Now: 21

Discussions that belong in other categories: 
- possible locations for other wizarding schools (3.17.1 Other
wizarding schools)
- geography within Hogwarts and its grounds (2.16.1 Layout of Hogwarts)
- uplottable charms and how they apply to Hogwarts (3.16.1.4 Hogwarts'
defenses, possibly 3.8.4 Spells, potions, and incantations)

---

I would like to combine 3.15.2 Diagon Alley and 2.15.14 The Leaky
Cauldron.  The latter is more or less a specific subset of the former,
and only holds six good posts.  The posts in the Diagon Alley category
often discuss the location of The Leaky Cauldron as a leadin to
locating the entire alley.

3.15.2 Diagon Alley
-------------------
Originally: 26
Now: 21

Discussion of exactly where in London Diagon Alley, as well as the
Leaky Cauldron and Knockturn Alley, may be located.  Also, a lot of
discussion on the physics of magical space.

3.15.14 The Leaky Cauldron
--------------------------
Originally: 9
Now: 6

Specific discussion of where The Leaky Cauldron is located. 


-Kelly, really going this time
