Who feels like a Thread-Killer? Part 2

[pixie dust 112]

cool... we grilled too!

How's the book so far? Maybe once I'm done with all this schooling I'll get an HP book.

We ate at my nephew's graduation party. But DH just made me an omelet. YUM!

 

[blame my sister]

Oh cool!

You know someone in my class had mentioned to me that she had a digital recorder. I thought it was really cool since she could record all our lectures. I had no idea they had something like that out there.. and now they are on mp3 players!!

I don't know if ours can do a whole lecture but it is still amazing cause your talking to someone who started with PONG, BETA and SPEAK AND SPELL, and now to have this technology it's incredible!

 

[blame my sister]

I never noticed before that you can edit or delete your own post after the fact. Now if I can get some other things to work I'll be in good shape.

THAT is SOOOOOO Cool!!!! I wonder if all of them are....or if you really are just lucky and got a randomly signed copy???? hubby is bbq'ing tonitr so i can keep reading & then he plans to watch boxing so for SURE i'll keep reading

I preordered it back in February from Amazon. It was 37.99 for the deluxe edition...with special artwork!
Anyhoooooooooooooo i went back to the amazon website...THEY DONT MENTION IT AT ALL. Nor can you buy it anymore!
I even googled it, and checked ebay...NUTIN.
I even posted it here on the dis...and NUTIN! how odd is that?

On the top of the slipcover box, she signed it. It is not a repo or anything...It was done with real ink etc.

Me, Harry, and my HP guru staff member

It was my DD who finished it yesterday. She goes through books like you wouldn't believe.

She's not allowed to talk to me about the book until I'm done reading it, unless I bring up something that I've already read in the book. Poor kid, I know she can't wait to discuss the book, but it simply is not allowed. She's not even allowed to show any expression where the book is concerned!

All she has said is that she's sad that the series of books is over now.

Mary~ you're party looked great. Can't wait til it's up on youtube! Was the party done as a fundraiser or just for fun? How in the world did you determine who got to check out the book first?

DU ~ awesome anout the autograph. LizzY is so jealous!

Brenda~I'm on Chapter 9, just a bit behind you and I am really enjoying the book. Hope you're enjoying it too.

DP~ it's a beautifully, perfect day here too....and my DDs want to go to the movies to see "hairspray" I want to see the movie too, but not on a beautiful day when I don't have to work!

Hello

It's pretty hot out right now. I think I'm going to let the boys go splash around in their pool.

Mary, neat pictures! Thanks for sharing.

I asked hubby if he wanted to see Hairspray. He said yes but he doesn't want to be seen at the theather. Men!

Betsy, have fun with the dgd's today.

Du~ pretty cool that you got her siggie.

Have a good day everyone

We saw Hairspray today...I think some may think it is corny in some parts, but I litterly cried with laughter in certain scenes. I hoped that some things went over my dd11 and dd13's heads, but felt it probably didn't. It was nice to see a musical again...other than Highschool musical.

PD-I think I can start Harry Potter tomorrow. Lizzy must be Dying to talk.

DU...very cool autograph..you're a lucky ducky.

I will have to go back and see Mary's pictures tomorrow. I will have been back from Disney a week tomorrow. Way behind on all threads!

Just wanted to pop in and say hi.

Talk to you all tomorrow~

Good Morning Tk'ers!

Bringing the car in today. I have a leak from somehere ! Think it may be the radiator. Only 4,000 miles left on the warranty!

Hoewever I will wait for it to be fixed.....and READ HP.
I am up to Ch 26! I am exhausted from reading & exhausted for what poor Harry & his friends are going through!

But its a GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD book!

However this house is NOT the easiest to read in. Within one hours time yesterday I was interupted........27 times!!!!! They are all nutz!

I got "Wow it must be nice to sit & read a book all day?" this coming from a woman who sits & watches Law & order all day...EVERYDAY!
"You aint done with that book yet"..coming from a man who puts EVERYTHING in the microwave for 30 minutes or more!
"You know she (JK Rowling) was on welfare & now she is the richest woman in the world"...coming from both of them who panic if the TV guide dont come on time!



Anyhooooooooooooo lots to do today when I get back from the dealership!
Check in on ya all later!

I'm only on chapter 15. Didn't get to start it until Saturday night, and I hear you on the interruptions, DU! I think having your parents and James with you is the equivalent of my having my 3 DDs!
