Leaving the OotP era behind.
Jul. 16th, 2005 02:11 amOotP re-read: 486/766 pages.
So I'm about two thirds done. Work and my friend's pseudo-birthday-party took up all of today and so now I don't know whether to read as much as I can now and maybe finish it before rushing out the door in the morning or just call it a day, sleep now and re-read the 'important bits' I skimmed over due to certain events last time. I'm leaning towards the former (because I really don't want to miss anything) but that's going to mean little sleep. Eh, I can probably live on caffeine and squee tomorrow.
I should have started this earlier but isn't hindsight wonderful?
Also, all this Potter-ness has taken away from the fact that I'm going to Shihad tomorrow night! I'm really, really lookng forward to it but I probably will have to walk away from HBP unfinished, or if I do finish, I'll have to keep my mouth shut about it. Either scenario could be quite interesting.
Reading fic just before felt really weird. I just couldn't quite get into it knowing what's going to happen tomorrow. One Day (or Night, depending on your time-zone) of Quiet and then Complete Fandom Implosion. It's leaving the OoTP era behind and all that has entailed; the good, the bad and the tearful.
Anyway, I won't be logging in here till I finish HBP. Happy Reading to those who are, Happy Watching to those who will be enjoyng the Sci-Fi Channel's Insane Friday Line-Up and to the rest of you, have a good weekend, kick back and be prepared to be amused at some fandom insanity. ;)
Last fic I read before HPB: It's Not the Years, Honey. It's the Mileage by
thistlerose (R, Sirius/Remus)
Last Time: Turns out I was right to be apprehensive.
Nine Hours.
