T minus fourteen hours and counting
So damn excited now.
Actually, I just looked up at the clock and my excitement was dampened by the sight of a purple-pink flash. Bloody neuro condition. It was over very shortly, but still.
Okay, back to being excited. So here's how I'll be passing the evening.
Pick up Mountain Dew after work. Call Borders to find out what time the party starts. Agonize over choice of garments -- should I wear my white blouse with the Gryffindor striped necktie, or my Quidditch shirt? Get the guest room prepared, since that's where I'll be doing my reading; I have to make up the bed and add a few pillows. Do a load of laundry, since I need to wash my jeans. Kick back and plow through Half-Blood Prince in preparation. Play my Zeus city-building game to distract myself from excitement. Check six times to make sure my book reservation slip is in my wallet.
Go to Borders. Party. Get book. Clutch it to chest and mimic Daffy Duck: "MINE MINE MINE!" Run to car. Avoid temptation to look at the ending.
Come home. Get Mountain Dew and snackage. Hole up in guest room. Leave only to go to the bathroom. Read continuously from cover to cover. Watch sunrise. Post to journal about having completed book (I already know what I'm going to say, it will be short and spoilerless). Sleep. Post second entry later in the day, crammed with spoilers.
( Under here, a few of my predictions. One is based on spoilers I've encountered, so I will turn it white. The others are safe. )
