Poor Mr. Porcinus -- that was great. a bad rutabaga did him in? I didn't think rutabgas were so bad (not like turnips )
'Well, not that much anyway' -- ah, yes, the all crucial qualification .
'he was such a thoughtful boy' -- ? doesn't that kind of sound like a dear aunt speaking of her favourite nephew; perhaps that's part of Ginny's plan to get over him
'Helga Hufflepuff's furry pink bathroom slippers!' You've done Ravenclaw; do we have Gryffindor and Slytherin coming up (the latter should really turn her off)?
Jealous of Parvati -- Yes, she is definitely getting over Harry

Yes, Mr. Porcinus - done in by a rotten rutabaga. What a tragedy!
You think she's getting over Harry? Definitely, right? |

| Ginny has not chance of getting over Harry. Harry is deffinitely flirting with her and he has noticed her watching him. He is deffinitley watching her and seeking out her company. He even recognised the lightning bolt in the picture of the tea leaves in the cup. Thank you for writing. I look forward to the next chapter. Please update soon. I have added you to my favorites list. p |

This story is great - just the right mix of cosmic irony mixed in with the teen angst/fluff.
You had me cracking up several times. I'm very much looking forward to more. |

| Wow, I'm honoured that your first review was for this story. Cosmic irony, huh? I like the sound of that! I hope the next chapters have you craking up some more. |

Listen, if you think this is angst -- write all you want! This is marvelous.
Where to start:
"I need not recount to you the unfortunate fate that befell the wizard Angus 'Porky' Porcinus, who, while attempting to Transfigure himself into a potbellied pig, became distracted by a small grease fire that had broken out in his kitchen." Hysterical!
A book was open on his lap, but he was not paying attention to it yet. He seemed to be waiting for something. I love this line -- it captures so much with such economy.
Then the whole neck thing -- bloody brilliant, woman.
Okay, when's there going to be more. More, more!!! More!!!
Bravo,
h.

Hello h. Ah, you liked the whole neck thing, eh? I did too.
If I were , and Harry said that I think I would have launched myself at him, consequences be damned! He's too bloody sexy (at least the Harry in my mind for his own good. Sigh.
I'm glad you like McGonagall's little spiel. I had a fun time working on that.
More, in the form of chapter 6, is probably right around the corner.

| Ginny give up! It's obviously the list is not going to work |

| Yes, you know that, I know that, we all know that, but Ginny obviously is still in denial! Thanks for the review. |

Another awesome chapter. It's something about this story that keeps me smiling. Probably the fact that Ginny is fighting a losing battle. There's no way she'll ever get over him. She adores him way too much. I think I was reviewing a story over the weekend and made a comment about Ginny which was, "It's easy to move on, but hard to get over." That's exactly what's going on here. Poor thing. I just love that she's trying, but she knows deep down that she'll never win. Especially with your Harry being all playful and sexy. Or to put it in your words that I absolutely love,
Helga Hufflepuff's furry pink bathroom slippers! Even his hair is bloody sexy
Haha, I thought that was just cute. Nice chapter, nice job, quite brilliant. What a fun story.

| Hey, thanks for such a great review. And I agree with you, getting over someone - especially if that someone is a dead sexy Harry - is a lot different from giving up on that someone. I'm happy you're enjoying the story. |

| Well, I wonder what the Parvati thing is. Hmm. And Ginny is getting a little angst-y. But, still a great chapter. |

| Well, as I said, what's a teenage romance story without some teenage angst? Don't worry, there's not too much angst in this story. Thanks for the great reviews. |

| I do really like this story. I love how you make Harry to be such a flirt and you seem to really get inside Ginny's head. Plus it's great to see a different side of Hermione. Usually people protray her as a grumpy student who whines and mothers too much. Keep up the great writing! |

| I think that Hermione has a mischievous streak too - after all, hanging around Harry and Ron for 6 years is bound to have some influence on her. I'm glad you like this flirty Harry - he deserves a break now and then, don't you think? |

| I really hope that you might be thinking about writting this story over again in Harry's POV. It would be great! Hermione is so evil. I love it! |
| Thursday 22nd February 2007 03:46 | Getting Over Harry Potter (Author Response) |
| You know, I did try to start a Harry POV, but he insists on being mysterious and sexy. I'm happy you like "evil" Hermione - the girl does know how to have fun sometimes. |

| Great update! I laughed out loud at the bit about Professor Sinistra getting the mild concussion from a punching telescope--great tie in with book 6! Hurry with the next chapter, please! |

| Lol! That was a great chapter! This story is one of my all time favorites. It makes me laugh every time I see an updated chapter. I can't wait until Ginny gives up on her quest to get over and starts doing something about getting. I can't waot til the next chapter! |

Oh, poor Ginny! She might as well face it, Harry is dead sexy to her no matter what he does.
I like your Ron and Hermione. |

| Ginny's bound to be a bit stubborn about this for a while, but I'm pretty sure she'll soon see the light. Next chapter will be up soon! |
