Ok Miss Julie "Death Eater" Heney...I finished it, ok? Sleep deprivation clearly is no longer a factor in my delayed completion of Book 7. So here I sit, exhausted, but happy and with a sense of closure. Having avoided Internet spoiler pop-ups for the past three days, I am happy to say that I was properly surprised by the end--or at least many of the final moments in Harry Potter's saga. And to echo Miss Heney's comment (that Dark Mark prickling yet?? Oh wait, it WON'T anymore, that's right) J.K. Rowling can have all of my money.
p.s. This weekend, I went to Indiana to visit some of my flatmates from my semester in Dublin. For clarity's sake, I'm just going to list all of the things that I did:
1. Arrived at midnight Eastern time with ELEVEN hours of traveling (bus/train) under my belt.
2. Went to an Indianapolis house party and supervised a bonfire in a parking lot (phone books provided most of the tinder).
3. Went to bed at 5 a.m., got up at 10 a.m. Saturday.
4. Ate delicious food prepared by my friend Jess's mother Pam, who also grilled me about post-graduation plans almost to the point of tears on my part.
5. Sat by a pool and took a nap on a cabana chair.
6. Went to a microbrewery festival.
7. Bought Harry Potter.
8. Went out until 4 a.m., went to IHOP at 4:10 a.m.
9. Got on the train (miraculously) at 6:00 a.m.
10. Arrived in Beloit at about 2:30, tired and happy.
That's all, folks. The summer of ridiculousness continues...
Love, Laura DM
