Bittersweet

For those of you who know me well this will not surprise you. For those of you who don't know me as well may think I'm weird but.....I fully admit to being a Harry Potter freak. I've read all the books at least three times each. Friday night at midnight I took my place in line at the local Wal-Mart to get my copy of the seventh and final book of the series. There were at least 100 people in front of me and some people had their little ones with them. One little girl behind me had a lightening bolt painted on her forehead. So cute. Anyways, after I got my book I stopped and got Jason and I a coke icee (another addiction of mine) so I could have a little caffeine to help me stay awake. By 12:45 am I had my PJs on and was curled up in bed reading. So excited. Now for those of you who don't read the Harry Potter series you will think I am a total loser. Even those who read the books may think I am a total loser for getting so excited about it. But it's been two years though since the sixth book was released and I read that in three days. Needless to say I had been waiting a long time. I read until 5 am. Addison needed feeding at that time so I fed her and finally turned in for the night. Addison got up about eight or so so I had like 2.5 hours of sleep. I probably would have been exhausted but I wanted to get up to start reading again. Luckily for me Martin and Linda had asked to take Zachary with them to the beach that weekend so I knew I'd be able to read quite a bit that day. So in between taking care of Addison and doing some house chores I read throughout the day. I did take a break to go to dinner and a movie (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix) with my husband. I didn't read to late that night but picked the book up as soon as I got up on Sunday. I finally finished it Sunday night about 10:30. It took me less than 48 hours to read a book that was 759 pages long. The book was really good and I enjoyed it immensely. I can't wait to read it again once Jason is done with it. I know most of you think I am crazy but you should really try reading the series if you haven't. They are so much fun. I can't wait to read them to Zachary & Addison one day!
