HP # 7

Yeah, I stayed up until 11 last night reading it. I am glad it is over, but it was good! It was great.
It sold 8.3 million copies the first day that is 5,000 copies a minute. People were lined up for 3 days to get the book.

Time

Where does time come from and why does it leave us so fast? I don't know what happens to it. It just seems to leave. I look up and it is gone. The end of the day is here and I have accomplished half if not a third of what I wanted to do.
I took a week off of work to finish up my college class. I had a list of stuff to do and hardly got any of them done. This entry was on my list and I am just now getting to it and I still do not know where time goes.

Shake it.

Beach Coast.

Palm Tree

Running down the beach.

Could I be cuter?

Dehydration

No matter how much water I drink I can not get hydrated. I have drank water and Gatorade and more water. I don't know what else to do. I am tired of walking up the stairs and feeling like my heart is going to pump out of my chest.

Flowers in Guam



The Bandwagons or (Brooms) We Get On

Ronnie started it about 2 months after we startend dating. His room mates had gone movie shopping and I laughted at 3 of the movies they bought. Now, I am hooked. We watched Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone that night and I am watching it right now as I do some (much needed) updates to the blog and download music to my computer only 15 nimutes after takeing a Midrin. (DAMN my head hurts.)

I use to be a Harry Hater like there was no tomorrow. Then Ronnie made me watch the movies. During our last deployment between planning the wedding and working my butt off, I ordered the 'box set' of books one through five! I read one through 3 before we got home. Four was read while we were on vacation in Vegas and Phoenix. Ronnie bought me book six in a grocery store because it was on sale.

I, like everyone else that is a Potter-addict, pre-ordered. I pre-ordered from Borders while I was in the states. I get to Guam and find out that the exchange will be selling them so I cancel Borders and pre-order here on base. (It would have taken me 3 weeks to get it in the mail, and I have waited 10 months, I am not waiting a minute longer than I have too.)

I have taken this week off of work and have been looking up Harry and the gang in light of the movie and the book. I am very sad that I can not be in the states with all the crazed fans to go to Borders and experience the 'beginning of the end' of Harry.

Ronnie told me about 3 weeks ago that we would have to make a few trips to the movie theater soon. I asked him why and he told me that we had to see Transformers and the following week we would see Harry Potter. I looked at the man that introduced me to Harry and said, "You are telling ME that we have to go see the movie"? He looked at me and said, "How got you hooked"?

When we saw Transformers, I noticed that the theater we were at was pre-sailing tickets for Potter. I looked online today and noticed that it was already relased! All ready released. I thought it would come out on the 14th. Guess I was wronge.
