Dinne & a book
Jul. 5th, 2003 09:57 pmI'm now eating Mexican food (the people at Mexico Lindo now finally recognize me as a regular--they can't guess my regular chilie verde dish yet, but they do know I'm going to come in a 8:30-9:30 and ask for take-out), and reading Harry Potter.
Yes, I finally spent money this time. Which I'd never done for any HP product before, ever. I was planning to wait for the library and not pay a penny, like I had for all the others (except the middle two, that I read over a three-day weekend at my cousins' home.) But now I have it, purchased.
It was forty percent off. Shut up.
I'm on page 10 when I stopped to type this. I love it muchly. Harry Potter is an Angry.Young.Man. I'm pleased. I'd gotten so used to the blandness of the movie-Harry, I'd forgotten that I actually liked book-Harry. I liked this:
Uncle: "Listening to the news? Again!"
Harry: "Well, it changes every day, you see."

I jumped out a while ago with the promise to come back.
Now that finals are over, I should do that.
But don't tag me-- I'd have to catch up and read all of what's happened. Has anyone compiled it all into a single story update recently?
