Big ugly decision: Harry Potter #7 comes out the night of July 20. Borders wants three OMSI educators at a few of its locations doing Potions for the event. So cool! It's clear to them to ask me because (1) chem lab! dry ice! cool stuff! and (2) I already have a Hogwarts costume (oh yes). But! It's freaking Harry Potter #7! The last book! The book to end all books on the subject! I don't really want to spend it at megacorp Borders--I'd much much much rather be at Powell's.
So, doing the coolest science ever for the coolest purpose ever or being selfish and being at the much cooler event just being a normal person? If I did the former, I could trade out a few costume pieces and traipse as Pansy Parkinson instead of unidentifiable Gryffindor student... blargh. I'm feeling selfishish.
