An aside before I begin: I got a paid account today and was surprised and pleased to discover that they apparently gave me loyalty icons even though this is the first time I've had a paid account since I started with LJ in 2000. So I have 35 instead of 30. Wheee!
I will be pretty much ignoring the InterWebs until I have finished HP7. I might post in here but I won't be reading my friends page.
BTW, I got my icon from
active_apathy where it was generated by a comment thread I am not going to link for fear of spoilers others might post there. It does however feature some hilarious "spoiler" icons such as:
"River kills Voldemort with her brain."
"Snape is the Dread Pirate Roberts."
and "Voldemort is the name of Tom Riddle's SLED."
The Cylon one is still my favorite.
Anyway... Bryon and I are zipping through One Piece, which has suddenly taken a twist for the much-more-serious, with occasional bits of hilarity. XD
(Episode 258 makes me laugh every time I think of it. I won't say here what happens because I know Roxy's watching it too, and is pretty close to where we are.)
...
I decided to reserve HP7 at Barnes and go to the release party. Being that Bryon has no desire to go and most of my friends who usually go are out of town, I have convincedinvited my mom to go with me. Being that she's a children's librarian and a huge fan of the books, I think she'll get a kick out of it (I hope). We'll see if I even go to sleep after I get home with the new book :)
Happy reading to all the HP fans! :D
