Well the end of Circle's End is getting closer, I just sent 50 off to be looked at...  but the end is not as close as you might think, the current estimate is that it will probably be about 60 chapters, at 400K words. 

As a side note, It was damn hot today, and of course, one of the Compressors on the HVAC on my lab, yes, I really am a Madscientist, failed and it was about 95 in the lab...fun. 

So in the spirit of that situation, here's a touch more heat.  I am a H/Hr shipper, as such things go, but I occasionally wander off the reservation.  This really hasn't been betaed, I keep Lady Bluestar busy enough as it is...Thanks M' Lady.

Waiting up.  H/Hr/G and N/P/L






Also on another note, did anyone see the death poll for HP7, if you haven't it's here : http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13819658/   I agree, more or less with the odds on some of them, Moody, the Weasley boys, etc, but you can definately see the obvious presumption of the writer that the ships will end up as some sites, COUGH"mugglenetCOUGH hopes will happen, espcially  with thier odds againist Ginny and reasoning why. 

Thier odds againist Ron or Hermione dying, frankly are too low in my opinion, I think Ron is pretty much doomed, there are too many hints already.  Sorry, Ron, I like you, but I think your mamma's signed you off. 

Anyway, till next time...
