So, yeah, I'm going to the midnight release party for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince at Borders tonight. I stopped in on my way home from work today and picked up my wristband. :P ( Read more... )

I finally managed to snag the first Lemony Snicket book from the library today. Mine! HAHAHAHahaha! Ha! I also went looking for some books by Louise Rennison, but they were all checked out. Damn teenagers. I'll probably end up buying those, though, since I liked the first couple so much ( Read more... )
