Am I Too Old For This?

Posted on by

Jon and I were walking through the mall today and we saw a sign for the Harry Potter Breakfast being held from 8-10 on Saturday at B. Dalton. I made the comment to Jon that we would be going if I didn’t already have the book ordered. Jon’s response: “Jen, aren’t you a little too old for this?”

I figure that if people can stand in line at 3 a.m. in L.A. to get into the new Star Wars movie, I can toss on a button-down shirt, black skirt, tie, tights, shoes, and Jon’s preaching robes and be Hermione!

Some Randomness

[+] Less than two days until HP6 comes out!!!!!!!! *dances around the room holding a fluffy cat*

[+] I got my new glasses ordered today. I tried on about 10 pairs before I found something I really liked. Insurance ate half the cost of them and with the funeral stipend ($100), I’m out only $37.

[+] I’m participating in the Blogathon on August 6th. (My site for it is here.) I can’t wait to do it and I really hope I have enough topics about which I can post. (If you have any ideas, the email address is the graphic in the entry below.)

[+] It’s bloody hot here. It’s been around 90 for the last few days and it gets brutal upstairs where I usually am. I’m at the point of moving my laptop down to the “secretary’s office” (or it would be if we actually *had* a church secretary) and living out of there until the snow flies. The heat is making me really crabby and really nauseous.

[+] I’m 92% done with the wedding blanket I’m working on. It’s 2 ply with an N hook which means it’s HEAVY and a pain to be doing right now. (It was 80% done in May, but then I got sick…) I don’t know why it’s such a pain to finish — because it’s hot and I don’t want to do anything or because the blanket is OSU colors and the Michigan fan in me is rebelling. I’ve got some DVD’s from the library, so I guess the rest of today is going to be devoted to finishing it.
