Letter From the Editor

By Deidra

Dear Slytherin,

I don’t know about you, but I am quite over this whole Winter think. It may not bother certain Disney characters, but the cold, and snow, and ice definitely bother me. I’m bothered by all of it. The first day of Spring is this month, and I sure hope that I can see at least a bit of grass by then, though I doubt it. I’m thinking of planning a vacation for Pansy and I, somewhere warm and free of snow. For those of you that are Slyther-cicles like me, hang in there, it really can only go up from here. And by that I am referring to the temperature. At some point, it will be warm again. I don’t know exactly when that will be, but someday you will not need long underwear to go to the mailbox. However, today is not that day, so make some hot chocolate, or go right to some Firewhiskey (for those of you of age), and keep warm. Spring is coming, I mean, it has to right?

In other news, Pansy is taking some time off of work. The winter is really wearing on her (and me, but I’m the Editor-In-Chief. No rest for the boss it seems.) and even if I can’t go on vacation, I may just send her on one. Might do her some good, cheer her up, you know? So, Draco Malfoy is going to be filling in for her with the Advice Column. Should be pretty interesting, I know it’s been certainly interesting having him around the office. I recommend sending him some owls, we should see how he does. I’m fairly certain I heard him say something along the lines of “how hard can giving advice be?” so, we should give him a run for his money, yes?

Tyler has been fantastic at making sure none of us make winter wear fashion faux-pas. Who knew that polka dot mittens were all the rage? I sure didn't. Between him and Pansy, I’m quite certain I have the most fashionable winter gear I've ever had in my life.No more lime green hats for me! Still, my summer dresses are calling my name. Okay, they’re crying in anguish in the back of my closet. We miss each other, quite fiercely. Oh, I’m going on about Winter again, aren't I? Alright, I’ll stop.

Stay warm, sexy snakes! April has to be warmer. It just has to. (I’m not sure I can survive another month of winter, between you and me.)

Love,

Dei
