I just heard the first paragraph read on TV. (Hey, in some places in the world it's already midnight, and people already have the book. Lucky them!). I'm even more excited now than I already was to begin with, very curious about what's going on in that first chapter. Oooo, I REALLY hope my book arrives early tomorrow!

I never got around to pre-ordering a copy. Think there is any chance of me being able to just go and buy one later today?

I have to go to Costco later anyway. I'm betting they'll have piles of copies.

jgoo ... doesn't have anything else to do this weekend.

Except for that I do, and I can't leave the house until AFTER my copy arrives, because I just know that the second I leave it'll be here and nobody will be able to sign for it and I'll have to wait even longer to get it. I can't wait to start reading it!!! I hope it gets here soon!

I went to Borders and bought a copy. I didn't pre-order it so I got 30% off instead of 40%. Now, if you'll excuse me I have some reading to do. :excited: :thumb:

WARNING: DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK IF YOU HAVE NOT READ HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE

Meg: I can't believe this is happening to me. I can never go back to school again.
Stewie: Oh yes Meg, yes, yes, yes, everything was going swimmingly for you until this. Yes, yes, this is the thing that will ruin your reputation. Not your years of grotesque appearance or awkward social graces, or that Felix Ungerish way you clean your sinuses. No, no, no, it's this. Do you hear yourself talk? I might kill you tonight.

I really think the person who posted the above link should edit it to delete it. We all agreed not to post any type of spoilers until the week was up. Not that it really gives anything away, but really.

That does it! I'm staying offline! I've avoided Potter sites so that I wouldn't get tempted by any spoiler threads. So I'm surfin some news sites this morning and what do I find. Spoiler reviews, the titles of which even gives things away! Arrrrggghhhhhh! :veryangry:

I am so tempted to type something not PG-13! :cursing:
