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!
Oh, and I might as well respond to reviewers here J Yay 9 reviews for 3 chapters! And one isn't really even a chapter! I'm happy! Keep going!
DoGGie WaNdeRer- Thanks for your words of support! I will be continuing as soon as the teachers (mean evil teachers *wants to torture them until they agree to never give homework again* muahahahaha *cough*) start to lay off the homework a little!
hermionecaz- Yay! My first double reviewer! Thanks! And don't worry, I'll be continuing J
Sw33tyPrincessFaerie- My second double reviewer! Let's give her a hand! Yeah sorry about the shortness ;) Wow, you have a good memory! Much better than mine… I don't have really any memory… except when it comes to most HP trivia questions… But anyway, I have a plan for his Potions O.W.L. (well actually my friend came up with this but she gave the idea to me… so if it's horrible, you can blame it on her! Haha!). And about the Defense teachers, you'll have to wait and see! I'll give you a hint: it can't be Snape. I just don't think that JKR would write that. I'm trying to keep it mostly her with a bit of me (as shown by how Hermione wrapped her present in the first chapter—my friend does that all the time, it's really funny unless you're the one unwrapping, then it's just annoying, and by some of the original characters that will come up… don't worry, no Mary-Sues, I'll make sure of that). Thanks for putting me on your Favorite Authors list! Oh yeah, and your story is really good! I'll get around to reviewing it someday, never fear…
Drei Elles- Yay!!!! My favorite author!!! Or authors, as Sugar & Spice is written by three people… but who cares? I'm glad you like my story! Don't worry, I'll keep checking for an update! And I understand about the have-to-get-settled-before-you-can-write thing, as I have it right now. So take as long as you want, I'll be a good girl and I won't complain *halo appears over her head, covering the horns* Thanks for reviewing! Oh yeah, and I got my friend Sallymander (otherwise known as Sally, my beta) to review your story!
And a special thanks to Sallymander, Drei Elles, Bookworm12, and Sw33tyPrincessFaerie for adding me to their favorites! Aww you guys are so sweet! Well actually not Sallymander… LOL JK Sally ;)
OK, I think that about covers it! You don't really have to review to this chapter if you have reviewed for the rest of the story, but if this is your first time reading the story, please review! I love reviews, they make me feel all nice and bubbly inside J
