Five more days and I just ordered my copy of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from Amazon. Whoo Hooo! It will arrive on Saturday (as long as someone is here to accept it) or I get the book for free! What was even better was I had a credit for $1.80 that was applied to the book. I have no idea why I had a credit, but hey, I'll take it!

Less than a week to go! No exciting news that I could find on the Harry Potter front, so this will have to be a post as short as last night. Still haven't ordered my book yet. Told you, I'm the Queen of Procrastination©. LOL Ordering my book will be the first thing on the agenda for tomorrow as soon as i get home from *gack* work. That, and upgrading my Expression Engine. Whooo Hooooo!

Damn, I'm tired. Doing absolutely nothing this week at work has made me more exhausted than if I'd been overly busy. That sucks. So, all I have to say tonight is that the ordering on Amazon of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will have to take place tomorrow afternoon.

Zzzzzzzzzz

Just a little over a week to go! I can't stand the suspense!

I saw a funny cartoon on Mugglenet today. I found the cartoonist's actual site and here's a link to his cartoon called "Will Brendel and the Book 6 Fanaticism." It gave me a small chuckle.

BTW, I'm still awake because not only is there a dog barking, but the bratty children are screaming on the trampoline. God, I hate them all.

All right! Nine more days. I like the skin that Miss Zoot has for the Half-Blood Prince. Change the skin to default if you don't see it. I'll do a screen cap tomorrow to save it for posterity.

I'm a late-comer to this whole Harry Potter phenomenon. I read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone quite a while after it had come out in paperback and liked it well enough. I didn't understand the hysteria about the subsequent releases. In fact, I didn't read the other four books until after Order of the Phoenix was already in paperback. I am so hooked now, though. I told myself when I finished reading the last one that I could wait until the next one was out in paperback, but...I can't wait. I'm an addict, I admit it. I've read the first five more times than I can count in the last year. I check the HP fan sites daily. I go to J.K.'s site weekly to see if there are updates. Absurd? Maybe. Entertaining? Definitely.

I've got until Monday to order my book to have it delivered on Saturday, July 16th. Must remember to order it after Friday's payday.
