When I got home today, there was a message from Borders reminding me to pick up my copy of OotP this weekend. Pshaw. Like I would forget, you silly people! The message was really cool though because it was one of those pre-recorded messages and get this, it was the guy that narrates the Harry Potter DVDs! How cool is that?<\/p>\n<p>Ok, fine. So maybe it&#8217;s not that cool. I find strange things amusing.<\/p>\n<p>So I was going to wait until Saturday morning to pick up the book but I was reading <a href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/programmes\/newsnight\/3004594.stm\" target=\"_blank\">this transcript of an interview with JK Rowling<\/a> (beware! there are spoilers for OotP) and it just made me super duper excited. I think I may have to head to Borders for the midnight book party. I have no one to go with though since the boyfriend is going to be in Las Vegas for the weekend. Plus, I&#8217;m seriously going to look like a complete weirdo! I imagine many kids attend this book party, right? How weird would I look if I walked in. And by myself! Hmm. I&#8217;ll guess I&#8217;ll have to be quick &#8212; walk in, pay, walk home and pull an all-nighter reading the book. Hee.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, like I mentioned earlier, the boyfriend is going to be in Las Vegas this weekend for a bachelor party &#8212; I&#8217;ve given him a good amount of money so that he can win more money for ME! The deal is that if he wins at least $400, he&#8217;ll give me the money to buy an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ipod\" target=\"_blank\">iPod<\/a>. Eeee! I&#8217;m trying to send him good vibes so he can place smart bets and come home a winner!<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/empty-aisles.net\/alie\/\" target=\"_blank\">Alie<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lemon-parade.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">Melanie<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/yoyeen.without-a-paddle.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Reen<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/truelove.parisangel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Linda<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/iridescentglow\/\" target=\"_blank\">Nicola<\/a> for helping me figure out how to disable direct linking. \ud83d\ude42 I got it to work on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ever-lasting.net\/scans\" target=\"_blank\">A Beautiful Reality<\/a>. Go me. I haven&#8217;t customized it or anything so it only shows a red x &#8212; I think I will fashion an evil image to put in it its place.
