Hi everyone!

Good lord, it's been an insane past few days. There's been madness (both because I am going mad and because everyone around me is going mad), there's been a whole lot of mayhem, and Thanksgiving was just a complete shit-show. I've been visiting family and friends over the past few days. Remind me never to go visit people while they are in the middle of divorcing... and moving... and trying to help said people move out of their current house into their new houses. I also was very very ill on Thanksgiving day and napped on a couch in the middle of a giant group of people for several hours, which was great. (Sarcasm). Anyways, I'm dying maybe a little but it's all good because I saw Fantastic Beasts! AND IT WAS AMAZING.

It was so good I could cry. The nostalgia hit me like a freight train when I sat down in the theatre and saw the Warner Brothers logo come up on the screen. Seeing a new movie and having it still be in that same universe... God, it just felt so comforting. It was like a warm hug. Also, Newt Scamander is an ANGEL. The movie was fucking fantastic. No spoilers here, just honest to goodness happiness about how great it was.

Hope everyone is doing well. I am heading back home tomorrow afternoon/evening because I have had quite enough of the chaos around here. Tomorrow I will be taking some time to catch up on the last few NGF fics that I haven't read yet (for my sanity's sake), and then trying to deal with a whole slew of other stuff.

By the way, as it was Thanksgiving just a few days ago, I thought I would take a moment to thank you all. Thank you for letting me burst in and join this lovely little community. I am already so thankful for the incredible people I've met. I wish you guys all the happiness in the world.

I'll stop being all sappy now,

Capri <3

That movie was a lot of fun and Newt was just so cute. Such a hufflepuff :)

I'm thankful for your positiveness on LJ, as well.

:D

Sorry Thanksgiving was less than pleasant, but I'm glad you liked the movie and I'm even happier that you found your way here. :D

I haven't seen it yet and I'm soo curious about it. This rotten cold of mine has kept me home for a whille but I hope to go see it soon.

Ohhhh I so badly want to see it too! I've been to CC in London, and that also felt like being immersed in the magical world again, like you describe, and you're right, that feeling is so good, so absolutely priceless... I'm so happy to hear it all got back for you when seeing the movie! Maybe I should treat myself on it this weekend...

Sorry to hear things erupted into madness though :( I hope things will calm down for you again now that Thanksgiving is over, and you're hopefully having a quiet end of the weekend ahead of you. NGF is so good again, though, the fest always makes me so happy :) And almost reveals! I've got quite a few suspicions, and also some stories I'm DYING to discover who wrote it :D

And aww, sweetie, I'm so glad to hear you feel at home here. Fandom really is the best <3
