HARRY POTTER!
My Harry Potter book came yesterday! "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." Yay! I am so excited. However, I've promised myself that I will ONLY read 1 chapter per day. That way I can stretch the excitement and happiness that is the book over a month! Plus I can really absorb and think about the story in between. Hehe just thought I'd also say to David that he shouldn't read it too fast either. Lol Oh, but I'm also sad that the cafeteria at Intel wasn't open when I went down there at 7am, so I'm eating graham cracker sticks instead for breakfast. Woot.

But warning me isn't going to do any good. I will be finished with it before too much longer. I'll just remember that you're not going to get through it before the end of summer, and not include any spoilers when I talk to you.

David, I can't believe you took a DAY OFF to read the book! Haha don't you want to savor the story? I read the first chapter last night, and it was really interesting. I can't wait to read the 2nd before I go to bed tonight! Oh yeah, you're definitely right...don't give anything away. :)July 18 2005, 00:38:12 UTC 6 years ago
Re: Harry Potter
*Insert sounds of laughter* Good thing you can't believe it, because it's not true. I had several things I needed to get done today, and they've been on the schedule for about a month now - HBP had nothing to do with that. Shoot, if that was all it was, I wouldn't have had to take any time off! The book came out Friday night, and I had it reserved months ago - if it was just reading, well, yesterday was plenty of time for that. No, I've been taking care of other business today, and I'll probably have to take another partial day some time this week. But that's a different issue.Anonymous

Re: Harry Potter
Aight, David, I believe you, but you DID read some Harry Potter yesterday, right? Because frankly, I cherished the thought of you, snug in a recliner with a mug of tea and the book, chuckling at the fact that we were all in the fab, slaving away. HeheJuly 18 2005, 19:55:44 UTC 6 years ago
Re: Harry Potter
Yes, I did do some reading on Sunday - mostly going back with "Hey, don't I remember seeing something about..." issues. Er, no go on the recliner, though: I don't have such a piece of furniture. And yesterday was far too warm for mugs of tea, or anything which ought to be served at above room temperature. (It wouldn't have been bad for a goblet of mead, however...)July 18 2005, 01:40:25 UTC 6 years ago
Re: Harry Potter
*cough*I totally read it in 5.5 hours after getting it at midnight... went to bed at 6 in the morning a happy Gina. XD Savoring the story's for the second time around!

Re: Harry Potter
Hehe I'm glad you're a happy Gina, Gina. :) I miss ya! Guess what? I'm looking for a way to get DDR (or Stepmania) onto my laptop! Do you know if I have to have a PlayStation to get that to work? I know there's a PlayStation/USB converter involved...just trying to figure that out because I NEED DDR!July 18 2005, 19:59:21 UTC 6 years ago
Re: Harry Potter
I believe there is a PC equivalent of DDR out there somewhere - might that be Stepmania? If so, then all you'll need besides the software is the aforementioned USB/PS converter, and they are available, if not easily located. Oh, and you'll pretty much require a dance pad as well, but I'm fairly sure you knew that.I was not aware that you had become addicted, by the way...

Wow, another Harry Potter fan. Oh well, I don't have a problem with it. Just another cute little quirk about you I guess. I never knew how many Harry Potter fans I knew though. Oh, I loved your description of Danse Bacchanale..."a musical version of an orgy". So perfect.-Daniel (Swayze)
