You call this a party!? I heard that the party we were planning to go to was very disappointing. Instead of really recreating Diagon Ally like the store said they were doing, they just put up a bunch of white tents and had people hawking stuff. Hmm. That's so NOT what I had in mind. So we decided to try another one, but by the time we got to the other place at 12:30 it was less of a party and more of a line of people waiting to buy the book. Interestingly enough (that's sarcasm in case you needed some help on that one), I didn't see many kids. They were probably at home in bed by then. So no photos of cute kids dressed up. Maybe next time. The best new about today? Well, besides having the day off... I got my book in the mail. Thanks, Amazon! I've only read the first page because we just realized it was in the mailbox. I thought it would come by UPS, but I'm glad it came by way of the good old mailman! All hail the postal service!
