Would it surprise you to know that I dreamed about the book release last night? In my dream, my costume sucked and the kids at the front of the line were making fun of me. This says a lot about me and my insecurities, doesn’t it? Last night my my Mom said something to me along the lines of, “You kinda scare me with this Harry Potter stuff.” Hee.
I woke up early to clean up my house a bit since I’ll have company tonight before we head to Barnes & Noble. Of course, it’s really hard to motivate yourself to scrub a toilet when the seventh Harry Potter book will be in my hands tonight! This day is going to take forever, isn’t it?
Yes, this day is going to take FOREVER. I’m petrified that some idiot is going to spoil it for me today. TV is off, I’m not going anywhere online that might have some nasty surprise…all I have to do is make it through work tonight then I am off to B&N!!
I was so excited to see the countdown at 17 hours!!
I’m so excited. =) I told my boyfriend he better not expect ANYTHING from me until after I finish the book, hehe.
I hope you enjoy every minute of it, Zoot. =) And have a great time, with your friends.
I dreamed about it too… but this time, instead of being third in line, I was at the back, and there were only 2500 books to be had.
And midnight never came!
I’m terrified of the media right now, or that someone will start shouting spoilers the moment I have the book in my hands.
Eeep!
I couldn’t sleep last night for thinking about it. I went from absolutely pining for this book to not wanting to get it at all. I’m sad about the whole thing coming to an end. It’s bittersweet, no?!
Leaving at 9 for Barnes and Noble!!!!! Could hardly sleep last night
I decided to go to a book party and just give my amazon copy to someone when it arrives tomorrow. Then I woke up with my throat on fire and my body aching. It is acceptable to pass on cold germs for the sake of the Harry book?? I am leaning onto yes. I am trying for the media blackout…but when you have really no work to do?? it is going to make for an even LOOOONGER day with no internet!!!
15 hours! SQUEE!
Just as a warning… I heard of a few jackasses that are planning on going to the release parties, for no other reason than to just open the book to the last few pages and shout out NO WAY! SO IN SO SHOULDN’T SUCH AND SUCH!! without even reading the pages.
So the book releases may not even be completly safe. >.>
I hope you all don’t have any such jackasses where you’re going!!
Well. I dreamed last night that people were smelling my feet and then giving me feedback on it (”sour” - the heck?!). I’m… troubled?!
I can’t believe I agreed to go out of town to visit my inlaws this weekend! What was I thinking! Oh well I’ll have to wait until Sunday night to start my Harry-fest!
