I finally got around to watching A Very Potter Musical by Darin Criss and StarKid productions. It was great and hilarious. Darin was as good as expected. I really liked Joe Walker though, he played Voldemort. He's was just awesome. I'm planning on watching the squeal soon, though since Volddy died at the end of the first one, but I hear that Joe is playing Dolores, which should be awesome too.

There is interesting / good news at the post office. The current union contract for postal workers is expiring in May. So the union and the post office has been working on a new one for the next four years. I saw an article summing up the features of the new one today. The plan that affects me is they will get rid of the casual positions (which is what I am) and replace them with a new, lower level full time position. I'd start out at a wage lower than a career employee, but higher than what I'm at now. And I'd get benefits as long as I'm working over 30 hours a week. I'd have to join the union and pay dues, but this way people like me would be controlled more by the unions. As it is now, the unions have no say in my work, and the post office can over work and under pay me, basically undercutting the union workers. I'd be for it, more money and government insurance would be awesome. I could stop job hunting and focus on going to school. We'll see what they figure out in a month or so.

You'll love Joe as Dolores, he is HYSTERICAL (and still hot. XD!)

Here is a cool StarKid tumblr: http://fuckyeahstarkidpotter.tumblr.com/

They even have a link to the 'Un-Cut' version of the first VPM before it was pulled from YouTube. They ended up doing small cuts in language and stuff before they re-uploaded it. There is more little moments of gay and bromance in the original cut. XD

Thanks for the link, I actually did watch the "director's cut" but now I can get MAMD too, which I was having a hard time finding it as one file.

Welcome! The MAMD file is a bit low res, but watchable. I wish they'd come out with higher-res for all their stuff. I LOVE the HP musicals. They are awesome.
