My grandparents are utter nutters! Fully and totally full of nuts! I agreed to spend the weekend with them and I felt as if I was being brainwashed. I'm tired and cranky and irritated. Isn't life for a teenager supposed to be a bit more worried free? Aren't we supposed to be able to go and have fun?

[Private - Lucius] Normally I would not seek your knowledge but you are more socially inclined then I. What do you know of a man named, I believe, Tom Riddle?[/Private]

I think I need to bring out the old broom and take to the skies to clear my head. That or a good game of chess. No, I know I want to play cricket. I haven't played that since my last visit home. Anyone game for a round of cricket?

My brain hurts.

My heart aches.

The Prince Family is CRAZY!

They send you the most interesting letters.


[PRIVATE] It's so lovely to see just how low some people will go to get their way in the world. It seems that my grandparents have decided that I'm not turning out to be the young man they thought I would be. Can't say I'm sad about that. I'm pretty damn sure they want me to be more about the wizard and less about the muggle. Perhaps I would have been inclined to go that route if I didn't socialize with a young woman that WAS born in such circumstances as my grandparents deem unfit.

Not to mention that they want me to meet with someone that will make certain I remain in the "proper" social circles. If that means mixing with the likes of their friends the Goyles then they're in for quite a shock. Because I personally think that their thinking of blood is rather daft. All wizards and witches had to start from muggles. I bet if you go back far enough every single individual that thinks they're pure isn't. Wouldn't that be a nasty surprise.[/PRIVATE]
