I'm a bad fan.

There was an article in the paper today about the new book and it had a photo of the other five books stacked on top of each other. I got a kick out of the fact that each book was practically twice the size of the last. Miss Rowling must not know what brevity is.

I went to a party for Order of the Phoenix, and it was so much fun. I just wish I didn't have to work this one.

Random rant- my best friend in the universe just got engaged. Not only do I now have to get good about my health, so I don't look like a beached whale walking down the aisle, but I get to start worrying about our friendship becoming one of those single girl/married girl friendship horror story cliches. I'm way too young for that crap.

Hey wow, I used to work at Barnes & Noble and I worked our party for the Goblet of Fire. Fun times,

. Oh, and I'm single and have many married friends. It's not that bad, really.

ooo. Sorry you have to watch what you eat!

My bf got married 5 years ago, too. It's not that much different, except the past two times I've visited, they've gotten into two huge blowup fights and she's said she's getting a divorce. That's not fun. But she doesn't live by me, so...Sorry about that. But if they've been going out for awhile, it might be just the same, only she'll want to see you more, cause she is sick of her husband.

That's best case scenario, of course. Good luck!!!

Aw, thanks for your concern. You really do have a point. But I'm just such a melodramatic character. It's hard for me not to get upset about these things. There are so many people on this board I've come to care for so much. Plus, I'm already constantly upset about my friend moving away, so the spigot was already near full blast.

But I know you're right.

Thanks Sue. I'm sorry that you were crying as well.

I am too, that sucks. Both of you were already feeling vulnerable emotionally though it sounds like. That sucks too, I hope you are feeling better today too, Hillary.

Thanks Suze.

I decided to spend some time not only away from it but just not thinking about it. So I'm doing better now.

I've read all of them several times and can't wait for HBP. A while ago a couple of guys stole a copy of it and who dies was leaked. I don't know if it's accurate, but if it ends up being the same character I read it was, I'll be pissed.

Well, pissed that someone told me before I read the book. I've tried not to read any spoilers since I started reading HP.

I am glad that we have a name for you too-SUE
the username was confusing, too manny vowels and consanants-haha

I just wanted to stop by and Express Myself First I wanted
say-request-suggest, No let's say demand...

There will be no more crying!!, No tears over random thoughts!
Express yourself---maybe, but none in the random category!

So Hillary, Sue and any other tear shedders...
STOP...
Take a deep breath, pet an animal, whistle, say the word "ENOUGH," 10 times, go for a walk, let your thoughts wander and be aimless.
Think about a sunrise, or a full moon on a starry night , or the wind whispering through the branches of trees and remember you have felt this sadness before, and you will again...It will pass...

Of this....I know
~~dreams and hugs

Awwwwwwww, thank you!

(Can you get me an animal to pet for next time I get upset about a thread?) Seriously though, thank you. We need a real name for you, too.
