Man, skipping lunch was a bad idea. In other news, cleaning is progressing (somewhat), although I'm still kind of edgy and keyed up from the hypomania.

Suspect held over Harry Potter stabbing.
Rob Knox, 18, was killed outside the Metro Bar in southeast London in the early hours of Saturday morning while reportedly trying to protect his brother from a man wielding a knife.
The teenager played the role of student Marcus Belby in "Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince", which is due to be released in November.
Police arrested a 21-year-old on suspicion of murder and have been given more time to question him, Scotland Yard said on Monday, without giving further details.
Knox's murder takes to 14 the number of teenagers violently killed in London this year, a figure which has caused alarm among police, politicians and campaigners.

Date: 2008-05-28 12:45 am (UTC)It has reminded me that I need to go to a public notary soon, though. I'm actually in the process of changing my name to Sydney. So, thanks for the reminder, God, but next time, just leave me a post-it. >:|

Date: 2008-05-28 02:54 am (UTC)Heh, my confusion with those two ends up being doubled as I often confuse Samantha Morton with Emily Mortimer who is then confused with Emily Watson who is then confused with Emma Watson. The first three I mix up the names and faces and Hermione gets thrown in there for the obvious name similarity with Emily Watson (the image results when googling "emily watson" will back me up on this).
Once in a while Toni Collette will pop up in this mix, though I'm not sure I've figured out a reasonable excuse for that one just yet.
