Muggle Struggle

So...on this highly productive Friday afternoon I have played six rounds of Disney/Friends/Harry Potter Scene It, watched Sweeney Todd, devoured half the Wendy's 99 cents menu and scoured the espn.com site right down to the most obscure women's college sports news (lacrosse rankings, anyone?). And now, in the middle of Harry Potter: The Sorcerer's Stone I have come to the most useful conclusion--I want to be a wizard. I mean, come on, I was destined to play Quidditch! But its not all fun and games and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans in the wizarding world, no no...you gotta think BIG! A lot of power and responsibility goes with wand ownership...

First order of business as a wizard: Create elixir that allows user to eat massive amounts of ice cream, forgo working out, and still maintain a girlish figure. Hello--this seems like a no-brainer.

Second order of business: Design an accessory that plays the soundtrack to my life. I know I'm not the only one that wishes they could walk around to relevant Beach Boys songs...right?

Third order of business: Impose a salary cap on baseball teams. Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Fourth order of business: World peace. Erm, that's what they say in all the pageants, it just seemed appropriate.

Now it's your turn--I think a good rule of thumb in designating your own responsible wizarding deeds is WWHPD? (What would Harry Potter do?) Who's got ideas?


Exes and Ohs,

Stacy
