harry potter and the I need book 6 right now

well this is just great: I do not have a copy of harry potter and the half-blood prince in london. how on earth am I going to do a prerelease reread without it?

also I cannot find my wand at the moment, and the july 21st midnight release parties are fast approaching.

Your wand might be here - should I fedex it with the sixth volume of HP, if I find it?

your friendly future information professional suggests you join the London public library!

bronwen I am of course already a member! do you think they would have copies of HP6 on the stacks?

mila, if you are bored today, a trip to the library makes for a plesant walk!

simon said...

thanks for the offer, mom. I will perhaps look around for my wand first, I am sure it is in london.

I was hoping you were kidding about owning a Harry Potter wand, but I fear it is all too true! Did Mila make it for you? Oh, you kids. Born in the late 80s, I am guessing.

Anonymous, not only do Simon and Mila own matching wands, but they also own matching Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry uniforms.

our wands do NOT match! simon made mine first and it is so sweet. after he gave it to me, he was jealous and made himself a wand that is not quite as nice, no offence.

simon said...

anonymous were you born in the 70s or something? wow that is so old.

luke, you may have touched a sore spot. you see, my wand is from olivanders. I am not familiar with the provenance of mila's wand, but it does not appear to be from that aforementioned maker of fine wands. certainly one can do no better than olivanders for a wizard wand, so mila is probably a bit jealous.

MILA GET ME BOOK 6.

simon, you are such a HUGE NERD!

also, i went to the library this morning and GOT YOU BOOK 6. i hope you feel bad because it took so long for them to find it (the book had just been returned and wasn't back on the shelf yet) that i missed the first appointment of the day (a well baby check--my fave!!!)

well a lot of good book 6 does when you are hiding somewhere in the hospital with it. I need that book you know. you are two seconds away from getting an overhead page.
