Hi everyone --

I'm still sorting through the mess of my life after the Allison floods here 
in Houston and swore I wouldn't post here for awhile (just reading the 
messages on my inlaws' dialup connection is taking time) but ....

<<<Florence asked: Has anyone wondered if perhaps Ginny has had some magical 
foresight that she is destined to be involved with Harry in some way?  This 
cold explain why her crush is more enduring than a normal muggle one.>>>

I've seen this mentioned before, especially with the Ginny threads today and 
I just have to ask why people have the perception that she has an unusually 
long (and therefore significant) crush on Harry?  Maybe it's just me (and 
again, maybe interesting psychological insights could be gleaned from my 
dislike of Ginny), but I sure had long-standing unrequited crushes that 
lasted that long and at that age in particular.  I know there was a guy a 
year ahead of me in school that I had a huge crush on for 5 yrs or more 
(starting when I was 12). I don't think there's anything significant in the 
long-running nature of Ginny's crush.  Then again, I still see more 
hero-worship than most people do, and as I said, I see very little of canon 
Ginny that I like so far.

The Weasley most apt to die IMO?  Ron.  Ginny would be my 2nd pick.  My next 
guess might be my favorite Weasley: Percy.

Okay, back to laundering mildewed clothing.  Yuck!!!
