Current mood:enraged

I SPENT SEVERAL HOURS LOCKED IN A TRUNK LAST EVENING. I could have DIED. I may get scoliosis because of it as I was stuck in a cramped position.

I informed Millicent that since we have the week off from lessons, we ought to spend time working on her training regiment as a Beater. Since she's a LAZY FAT COW, she decided to lock me in her trunk to avoid this. She didn't even take the clothes out before she did it. There was cat hair all over everything, but if I sneezed I might have used up too much oxygen. Of course, I didn't have my wand, so I was left stranded.

Eventually my life flashed before my eyes and I passed out. I PASSED OUT. If I'd been left in there much longer, I likely would have died.

I suppose Millicent assumed I'd died when I stopped making noise, as she must have opened the trunk and thrown me on the floor because that's where I woke up. I'm surprised I didn't wake up underground, buried alive because Millicent thought she'd killed me. Oh, I'm just over-reacting, everyone will say. Surely I wouldn't have died. The only air that came in was coming through a KEYHOLE. What if I'd cracked my skull open on the lid of the trunk?

I'll likely be damaged for life now. I won't even be able to take my things from Hogwarts in a trunk as the sight of it will PROBABLY SEND ME INTO SHOCK.

I prefer cremation.

However.

I assumed you died.

It is a good thing I know mouth to mouth.

Darling, you were wearing socks, weren't you? I would loathe to think that your feet may suffer as well as your spine all bunched up in that dreadfully small trunk!

In light of your horrifying experience, I am owling you with a new book by Diana Prevaleça - Trials & Tribulations in Trunks - What to Do When Your Style Has Been Cramped. Do let me know that you've received it, dear. My owl has been most unreliable as of late.

Mother, I had both my socks and shoes on, and in the position I was in both of my feet fell asleep, so if they suffered any trauma I couldn't feel it.

Out of curiosity, who is Diana Prevalencio?

Re:

Oh, my poor darling boy! I shall owl you straightaway with some things to ease your pain.

Diana Prevaleça is a marvelous, marvelous woman whose name every witch and wizard shall soon know, have no doubt about that.
