Plan: Read Harry Potter.
Reality: Only HP book in the house is book seven.
Plan: Borrow from library.
Reality: Owe hefty fine, and am broke.
Plan: Borrow book one from fellow knitter.
Reality: She's missing book one.
Plan: Borrow book one from other fellow knitter.
Reality: She forgot to bring me the book.
Plan: Wait one more week and hope other fellow knitter remembers.
Reality: To be continued...
Part of me is sad in the way I always am when my plans fail, but it's a sadness I'm used to. Part of me, however, is not so bummed because now I'll have more time to finish the knitting project that I'm working on. Always a silver lining, folks.
So to make this a somewhat Harry Potterish post (and interactive!), let me just share that in my excitement over this project (yes, I'm considering reading these books a Project) I have been taking oodles of online quizzes. Most notably, a 'Which HP girl are you?' quiz. Now I want to know if the quiz was totally off, so post your opinion on which HP Girl (TM?) I am and why and I'll post the actual quiz results next week...hopefully with my first installment of thoughts, notes, and reviews of book one!

Girlfriend, I am going to fly over there right now and hand deliver the first book. I am getting antsy!
ReplyDeleteAs for which HP Girl (TM) you are, that's a tough one. I'm guessing Hermione, since you're all smart and whatnot. :P You'll have to share her with me -- I'm ALWAYS Hermione, and that's THAT.
Yes, Cris you could totally pull Hermione. A smart know-it-all :P
ReplyDeleteI was about to offer you my copy, but I guess Candice's would be there earlier.
I must update my blog. See that's a delayed 'project' of mine ;-)
You're definitely Hermione - smart, opinionated, bleeding-hearted, a little prickly sometimes but totally lovable.
