-gasps- I forgot Remus's birthday too! ROT. But my excuse is that I am rotten with birthdays; my whole family are in fact, and the birthday person will often have to wait around until 10:30 and clear his/her throat significantly before anyone realises that they actually are not coming down with something. And then, of course, there's the way I always wish my uncle happy birthday one day early. Always. I swear it was 28 December when I was younger, not 29. I swear.

I was very glad to read how well Leandra is doing. I'm praying, of course, and I hope you (vous) get her close by this week. ♥

Ysabel! GGKay is now next on my list of things to order at the library (you will be pleased to know that Neil Gaiman is second).
