I admit that I’m a geek. And a bonafide potter head. So it wasn’t very suprising that I wanted to head out to Potter party at the Barnes & Noble at Union Square. The only problem was trying to convince my friends to come so that I’m not surrounded by children who are their past their bed time. In the end I dragged the H. twins with me. Of course, they wander off here and there. But what do you expect they were in a bookstore. It was like being in a candy store for a hour. I was number 1017 of the unreserved wrist band. Tick tock, it seemed like forever before we got on line for this 652 page book. At least the line moved fast. There were stacks and stacks of boxes. They ripped the cartons up and were running around like santa claus’s elves. After I got my copy, I tried to read it on the train. It’s so weird. My Harry Potter book was probably only touched by a total of 3 people. It still had that brand new smell of a new book. That nicely crisp cracking of the spine of a book which has not been leafed through. Well got to now. =)
