The Slytherin vs Gryffindor game is usually the highlight of the Quidditch season here at Hogwarts. From what I've noticed over the years, the outcome of this game generally sets the stage for whatever comes next in the season and significantly affects how it will all turn out in the end. So, I think it's interesting to note that this game is being held so far into the season. For those of you who haven't noticed (and I'm really not sure how you might have missed it unless you've been living under a Hippogriff for the last few months), Hufflepuff is in the lead in points at the moment.
Very interesting indeed.
In other, non-Quidditch related news, my mother owled me just the other day to tell me she purchased a rare portrait of Anne Boleyn. If any of you are art enthusiasts, there is actually a portrait of her on the Grand Staircase near the second-floor landing. As the story goes, for those of you who don't know, Boleyn was accused by Muggles of being a witch, though she was actually a Squib. A very rare painting of her was thought to be lost, but my mother was able to track it down and locate its position. Smart woman, my mother. I do wonder what she'll do with it now.
And that's all the time I have for my musings this evening. Stay tuned for my next update where I'll be discussing Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Post-Impressionism.
