i have to go, i have to go

"Dumbledore would have been happier than anybody to think that there was a little more love in the world."

Finished The Half Blood Prince last night. Or rather, I should say, early this morning. When I picked it up last night I had no idea that I could finish it but thought that I'd be doing pretty dang well for myself if I got a hundred pages or so of it knocked out. So two hundred and fifty or so pages later... But seriously, and if you've read it before you already know, you CAN'T put that book down, especially to try to sleep, once you've started the last bit of it. I had enough trouble getting to sleep once I finished it all. And that was close to one in the morning.

It is maybe a good thing that I didn't have a computer last night as well. Cause then I would have been up even longer. So much going on in my head once I finished reading. Just wanted to sit down and type it all out and see where I ended up. As much as I enjoy using pencils, I just don't really like writing for an hour or more at a time with one... Besides which, I am no fast typer, but if I try to consistenly write quickly for a long time there is no way on earth anyone is going to be able to decipher anything that I put down after the first ten minutes or so.

I was going to try to get in earlier than usual this morning and try to bang things out a little, but that didn't even come close to happening. Don't think that I heard my alarm going off for the first 45 minutes that I was apparently hitting the snooze button.

In other news... Had a scare the other day concerning my dearly departed computer. My mom got a call at their place from Dell about me renewing my warranty. My mom told the lady that I probably wouldn't be interested as I no longer was in possesion of the computer in question. The lady then asked my mom if I had ever contacted Dell after the comp was stolen. Apparently, I could get a refund on it as it was still under warranty. So I called Dell yesterday. No go on the refund. Was already in the extended warranty or something. If it had been stolen like six months earlier.... Oh well. Would have been nice though.

Hope it doesn't rain tonight... But then again, I do.

Ooh, also -

Wait. I won't flood you with Harry Potter glee, even though I can hardly contain myself at this point. Fortunately, I have equally obsessed friends who can squeal with me during lunch. Relieved a lot of pressure. Otherwise, I might have exploded in my cube. Not pretty. I'd get guts all over my action figures.

Whoa! You can't just start with all the "I have more to say", and then just not ever say anything...! And also...you have more action figures at work?? I know someone who may be interested in taking a field trip there with me to, ah, redecorate...
