Smoothie FTW

The lines are really the only reason i attend the kind of functions that conjure the hapless denizens of any counter culture. Not that Potter-ites or Harryiers or whatever they could be labeled are a definite counter culture. They are more a poor group of souls who must wait several years between nourishing canon injections. I, of course, include myself as one of these souls. Even though i like Star Wars better.

After 2 hours of wading through stringy wizard wigs and lit'lins with ink smudged on their foreheads, i gave up. Apparently i should have pre-ordered before November. Of 2002. As with the past harry potter releases, Stop and Shop was more than happy to supply me in my fanboy moment of need. They were nice about it, and didn't make things awkward by pointing out they were my secondary merchant of choice. They, however, did lack the glowing wands and free stickers that borders was quite liberal with.

And now my bed calls to me. Its been a long night, one filled with smoothie tossing and short skirts and books that cost too much. There were scarves too.

Oh lord...were there scarves.

Can't believe you actually did it. Really quit though? Couldn't tough it out with the little muggrats? Nice try. I rested comfortably in bed with happy thoughts of Amazon delivering my copy free of charge directly to my doorstep.
