Great Merlin's Pants!

OMG - The Deathly Hallows was so damned good that I literally couldn't put it down! The moment I got up, I had to read a chapter. If I was in the bathroom - so was my book. I had to make myself put it down just so I could take a shower and feed my children. I found myself up until 4AM one evening/morn and 3AM the next.

Brian thinks Scholastic laces each page with cocaine or something...he might be right! ;o)

Well, I'm not going to ruin a good thing by discussing the book's contents until I know for sure that it won't spoil it for any of my dear readers...so please let me know if you are reading it. I am grateful however to have been able to immerse myself so completely in its story. It was wonderful to forget my own stress and problems for a time. Thank you Ms. Rowling!

File under: Can you freakin' believe it?! Ever since we moved into our new place about a year back, I have been fretting over my missing copy of "HP: The Order of the Phoenix." I've been looking everywhere for it. I mean, how do you misplace a bold, blue book of its size?! Turns out that my mother-in-law stole it!!! We were at her house looking for some hair pins and other stupid trinkets that she just cannot live without while at her rehab facility, when there on the bookshelf it sat! A blazing blue mountain of evidence... I had secretly thought she might have swiped it, but honestly didn't think she would do something so evil. Apparently I was right and she would! I know it is mine because at the time the book came out, I offered her the book to read when I had finished it but she declined the offer because she had already read her copy (FROM THE LIBRARY!). It was the only HP book on the shelf too...now what HP fan would only own one of the seven books? Now tell me it isn't mine?! Grrrrrr..... Let's just say it is now back on MY bookshelf. Now I am worried about my Deathly Hallows copy that I generously lent her to read! Stupid!
