So far this entire week has been hellish. This is worse than the "peer building" field trip to Bucharest that the Dark Lord sent us to back in the seventies. This is worse than my quarters being completely revamped into a pink velour monstrosity. This is even worse than Remus Lupin slipping an avocado into my salad.
Anger management sessions with Mr. Vain is too much for any decent person who values personal space to bear. Oh, Black tried very hard to sabotage my upcoming weekend with Lucius, however even Albus saw the paltry case for that. According to our handout "A Blueprint for Suspension of Hostilities", it is good to try and work through differences whether perceived or based in reality. However, chapter six, page 78 states, "It is not necessarily a good thing to have antagonists spend too much time together as any progress toward reconciliation to that point would most likely be undermined once another disagreement is introduced."
I knew if I couldn't convince Albus, then his damned Anger Management workbook would do the trick. However, everything comes with a price. Albus has "sentenced" me to review journal entries of the students. Of course, the unfortunate display at the Three Broomsticks has become legendary. I suppose that is to be expected.
However, I cannot help but notice that quite a few students have been neglectful with the upkeep of their diaries. I simply cannot allow that. Even though it is certainly not my choice of reading material, I have to sift through the ridiculous rantings of hormonal teenagers who, more often than not, haven't a chance in the world with actually "scoring" with anyone else.
In other words, if I have to upkeep a journal, then everyone else had better do their part as well. I'm sure that Dean Thomas and Ginny Weasley will be thinking of Mr. Potter when they report to Mr. Filch for detention.
"But Severus Snape," you protest, "you don't have to be so mean. What did those poor noble Gryffindors do to deserve such a thing?"
And I'll just have to answer that Harry Potter is too full of himself to deign to carry his part in his homework assignment. No special treatment should be allowed. So, I am now off to prepare a particularly nasty pop quiz for the Hufflepuffs.

Oh, Sevvie, I don't think your anger management lessons have worked at all! Your knickers are still sounding delightfully knotted. But, then, as it's you... I suppose that's not so bad after all.
A legendary scene at the Three Broomsticks? Severus, you can hardly even remember the event! Don't be so quick to call it legendary. I'm rather certain that your quickness has gotten you into trouble before, has it not? Or maybe I should ask Lucius about that...

Why Sinistra, you would think that with the way you've been snapping that you've run out of Muggle batteries. And I do know what I say by declaring the Three Broomsticks Episode an event of legendary proportions. Everyone has written about it. Your knees have even received an honorable mention from the oh-so-famous Mr. Potter, so you are a part of this official Hogwarts, A History chapter whether you like it or not.
No, Sinistra, I'm not in a good mood. Black and I still have to pay restitution to the rather unfortunate Madame Rosmerta. She always was a bit cunning for a Hufflepuff. If I am not mistaken, she will use that restitution fee to remodel the entire place. It's what I do if I were in her place.
And as for asking Lucius about my "quickness", I have to say that I am at a loss. I honestly do not know what you're saying here.

Muggle batteries? Oh, Sevvie, it really has been awhile for you, hasn't it? There have been many advancements since you last hopped into Knockturn Alley. Incidentally, why is it that you avoid the humble section of the world like the plague? A bit worried that you'll get The Itch again?
As for my knees, I would think that you, of all people, would be one who knew when to keep his mouth shut. Have you forgotten the little tale about knees you related to Xiomara and myself last week? Or were you, dare I say it -- too inebriated? You are such a fun lush, Severus.
I can't see why you're in such a sour mood, Severus. One might say you enjoyed your time in prison with Sirius, for all you've spoken of it. Dear me, Sevvie, haven't you anything else to talk about? I've picked up some interesting news about Flitwick from Hooch today, but if Black is all you're interested in...
