How about... this Saturday for a Harry Potter marathon? Yes? :D
So I finished Harry Potter. I can't wait to develop the pictures I took at the party! :D
Trying to add pink and turquoise/disney Sleeping Beauty decoration to my room without spending lots of money. Target has LOTS of pink and turquoise dorm stuff right now! I bought the pink plastic 3-drawer storage-mobile thing from Target because it was half the price of the turquoise one at Bed Bath and Beyond and there were only TWO of these pink plastic things total in all the local Targets. So rather than take all summer and decide and not be able to get it cause someone else bought them both I spent $12.99 of my hard-earned cash on it...
I also found some throw pillows on ebay for very good prices and so I ordered them too...
And I hung the pink and turquoise paper lanterns from my ceiling. There is a wooden square with two screws in the ceiling where the OLD smoke detector used to be before they replaced it, and I hung the lanterns from the two screws. Easy as cake. And they look really good!
"And you SIMPLY..."
I should have an HGTV show.
So I need to know when we're going to be celebrating La Fiesta de Padre on Thursday.
Shelby J posted her status as "not believing that *insert Harry Potter plot twist*" on facebook. Thank the MAKER I had finished the book before I saw it or I would have been MAD, as it was I posted on her wall saying that it was not really kosher for her to post the ending to the most popular book in history on her facebook 48 hours after its release. She relplied that she was sorry if she ruined it for me but she just HAD to write that, besides, she had decided to stay offline til she finished it and assumed all other Potterfans would do the same.
So I said that she hadn't ruined it for ME, but she couldn't expect the rest of the populous to stay offline just because SHE had decided to do that. I said that REAL fans looked down on people who spoiled critical elements of the books/movies for others.
REAL fans keep their traps shut.
Katie keeps begging me to tell her what happens (can she not go to the library?) and I'm not saying. I don't approve of spoilers.
I want that pillow I saw on the Bed Bath and Beyond website that's shaped like a heart and is turquoise and pink. But I don't remember seeing it at the Bed Bath and Beyond STORE.
Now I shall go do the key inventory.

People are not posting spoilers yet, you are right. I have seen a couple of places that have spoiler warnings and then you have to click through to the rest of the post. But NO, to post spoilers without warning is definitely unkind at the very least. The poorer, less privileged have to wait for a library copy or for a generous friend to loan them a copy. And many people have _lives_ for pity's sake and can't just stay off-line until after they've read the book.
Sheesh!
I start the book today! I'm glad nobody has ruined it for _me_. After all, they are called "spoilers" because they spoil the book for anybody who isn't as privileged. Shouldn't we be kind to one another???
And someone who could say, "I'm sorry I ruined it for you, _but_...." Well, the cavalier, uncaring attitude of some people!
_She_ wanted to post it. _She_ stayed off-line until after _she_ had read the book. Does she realize how self-centered that sounds???
Actually, the Holy Bible is the most popular book in history. ;o)
But, I liked HP&TDH also.
