I saw this strip over at GoComics today. I laughed so hard I cried.

No spoilers ahead.

Well, I finished reading the book about a half hour ago. I've been mulling over my feelings about it. I've got one word: unsatisfied.

I'm going to bed.

It's here!

Well, less than a day and I'll be reading my copy of the final Harry Potter book.

Marcus keeps telling me how it's going to end. Of course, he's making it all up.

He offered to buy me a copy at midnight so I could get to reading, but I can wait just a little bit longer until my copy comes in the mail tomorrow. I'm sure at midnight I'll be wishing I had taken him up on his offer. LOL

My book arrived at the Commerce City UPS facility this afternoon, according to the tracking number. At least I know this year that it will actually come USPS and I will be checking the mailbox instead of sitting here looking for a brown truck.

In two days I'll finally have the book in hand and have hopefully read a good portion of it. I was weak and started looking for spoilers. Fortunatley I hadn't found any yet when I made myself walk away from the computer. I was always the one searching the house when I was little looking for the hidden Christmas presents. I'm not good with being patient and waiting. I really wish I could skip work tomorrow, though, but I can't skip out because it's payday (another reason we should have direct deposit-lol). Fridays are long enough on a normal week without my constant obsessing over this book.

Heh, you can dress your WeeMee up to celebrate the release of the final Harry Potter book.

I chose to go with Ravenclaw colors because I'm pretty sure that's the house the sorting hat would put me into. I'm book smart. That's probably where I would fit. Besides, blue is supposed to be a good color for me. I wish they had offered a Hogwart's castle backdrop or something, though. Too modern a looking school background, but it's the only one that kind of fit.

Harry Potter in the Comics

Oddly enough, this time around I haven't been seeing a lot of references to HP in the comic strips. Mugglenet is pretty good at posting when one has been found. I did finally see a reference to book 7 over at Joy of Tech:
