OK, I'm really really really sorry about the long wait. If you haven't read my profile, here's why: my teachers are *really* piling on the homework now. I mean, tonight alone I have a science lab; an English essay; 40 math problems from Algebra, a 40-page packet on the Control Theory, something I don't even believe in; a book report with a packet at least as thick as the Control Theory one, due Friday (it's Wednesday night at about 9:50 P.M. right now); a 14-page packet, not including cover page, table of contents, etc., on landforms in Social Studies; and a worksheet in French (OK, the French is easy but the rest isn't). And tonight's a good night. I do homework from 3 P.M. until about 11:30 P.M. The only thing really keeping me going is FanFics (I've been bumped off my computer for reading them while I was supposed to be doing my homework so many times, I've lost count) and the Beatles! I kidnapped (album-napped?) about 14 albums from my parents and have been playing them (I think the song "I'm Only Sleeping" relates to me… I'm listening to it right now, actually… #3 on Revolver) in succession. So all day during school I have songs stuck in my head, as I have my alarm clock wake me up to songs. But I digress.

Pretty much I'm writing this to let you know that I haven't lost interest in this story, I just have *no* time for writing. I haven't even practiced my violin in like a week. I just have no time. So if you get anything, it'll likely be a short chapter. Just so you know.

Thanks for your patience!

I realized that I don't have disclaimers in my other chapters. I totally forgot. I'm really sorry about it and don't sue me! *hides behind a mouse* Here it is: I don't own Harry Potter. Or his friends. The only people I own so far are Alex and her mom. So don't sue!

Just so you know, this Author's Note is in my other story too, I'm too lazy to come up with a whole new one, and also I don't have time.

Oh, and I might as well respond to reviewers here. Even though I only have 2 to answer to.

Jessie- LOL thanks for the review! This is one of my best friends everyone, I'd be very disappointed if she didn't review. And if anybody else even reads these things, could you help us with a problem? Jess wants to get an account on here, but she's tried multiple times and I've tried once, and the verification email isn't coming. And the email addresses are from AOL and our school ones, not the ones that won't accept emails from FanFiction.net. Can anybody help us? Thanks in advance!

Dres Elles- Yay! My favorite authors! Well, only one of you read my story probably, but that's OK. Um… for the rest of the answers, read my answer in my other story and my review of your stories.
