This is long, but very very funny, if you can get past the background about 
my friends....I def reccomend you read it for a laugh...


So, everyone here has had boring weeknds am i right?  Normally i fill these 
with friends or harry, but this weekend i did both.  My 2 best friends in 
the world and my boyfriend were over at my house.  My room is rather large 
and has a "sittin area" and we were all reading the books, Signe in book 3, 
Chris in Book 4, Katie in Book 2, and myself at the laptop with PoU(which i 
swore i would never read, but i was sucked in)  Well, my mother comes 
upstairs and asks me to sweep off the balcony.  now, what do you think she 
hands me.....a broom....So, i get up and go outside quickly, but am followed 
by chris(who was thouroghly upset that they cancelled quidditch in book 4)  
He is looking over the railing of my balcony on the 2nd floor, and he looks 
down and he sees my trampoline.  His features light up into some insane kind 
of grin.  Recently.....during the middle of school, to prove he could, he 
went acrosee the support beams in the cafeteria ceiling.  ANyways, he runs 
and gets signe and katie and tells them to wait on the balcony with me.  i 
am sweeping it off as i was told and they are standing out there with their 
books, when i see him run back with a soccer ball, a tennis ball, and 3 more 
brooms.  I immediately see where he is going and say "no way in hell 
chritsoper....dont even think about it, go put the brooms back" but by now, 
signe and katie were excited, and even though i knew mommy would be furious, 
we put our books inside and came out.

Now, I bring you Quidditch in the Backyard:
Basically what he wanted to happen was this.  The 2 balls would be thrown 
from the balcony to my rather large rectangular trampoline that is below my 
window(we have tried to jump to the balcony but never vice versa) and then, 
one of the four of us would jump off the balcony railings on our brooms and 
sail after the balls, and if you cauth the tennis ball, our golden snitch, 
it was 150 points, and if you managed to throw the soccer ball back onto the 
balcony within one jump then you got 10 points.  I was on a team with signe 
and chris was with katie.  We all took turns sailing over the railings and 
needless to say, it was great fun.  Flying about on a broom would have to 
be, wouldn't it?

Well, The final score was Chris and Katie 80, Signe and Stephanie 450...They 
couldnt catch the "snitch" and we couldnt catch the "quaffle" tpo save our 
lives.  The game ended when mom looked out the library wnidow and saw me 
barrelling down on a brromstick...needless to say she was not pleased.



I am sorry this was so long, but the obsession quiz made me think of it when 
i had to check that box....for those of you who live in a non parentless 
household ;)  i highly reccomend this...but be safe  <vbg>  and for those of 
you who call me childish <vbg> i just can't help myself when i am high on 
harry!
