Photo-A-Day #834 07/21/07

Sunflower

Harry Potter was released today. I am on chapter 14. I am avoiding reading any comments, blogs, or news until I finish the book. This is killing me. I want to enjoy the book and take my time but I also want to not be spoiled by any leaks. So far the book is very exciting.

I spent much of the day painting and working on the dining room. Two out of the 3 new windows are in. We have paint picked out and in hand, Dad patched up the holes in the walls and tomorrow we should be able to get the ceiling and more of the primer done.

Today’s photo is not very realistic looking because I over filtered it in photoshop but I kind og liked the weird look of it. It is a giant sunflower just starting to bloom.

Harry Potter Seclusion



Harry Potter Seclusion, originally uploaded by BenSpark.

So my flight last night was delayed and I didn’t land till I after midnight. I figured that I would swing by Borders on my way home because the line might be shorter by that time. No such luck. It was chaos.

As I passed the Toy ‘R Us parking lot I could see that it was packed with cars. These cars were for people at Borders who were still in line waiting for the book. Then I saw a car of teens with the book pull up shouting something and I suspect that they were Harry Plotters. Harry Plotters are bent on ruining the plot of the book for everyone else.

You will be banned from commenting if plot points are revealed. I am keeping in a state of HP seclusion till I finish reading the book. I am not reading blogs, comments or anything else until I am done. Too many Harry Plotters out there.

So I am out at Stop & Shop waiting to get in and get my copy.

The doors finally opened, my copy is in hand. So expect to get mobile updates for a while. The HP media seclusion begins.
