If I have talked to any of you recently, I may have told you about how my roommate is over and beyond in love with Harry Potter. During the past couple of months, Stephenie has read every book and when I get home from school, she'll try to start a discussion about it. Poor Stephenie, the conversation is not very stimulating because I can't remember a thing about the books even though I read and even enjoyed all of them. Stephenie will say, "Do you remember when such and such happened?" And I will say, "Umm...I don't even know what you're talking about." Or she'll say, "Remember when so and so died?" And I'll reply, "They died?!" I have no idea why I can't remember, it's like I've never read Harry Potter before. But this week, Stephenie and I are going to the midnight showing of the first part of the seventh movie, the wisdom of this decision is yet to be seen. But in honor of Harry Potter week, Stephenie is blogging every day about something Harry Potter-ish. You can see her blog here.
You know, I did start this blog with a purpose in mind, and I can't for the life of me remember what it was...Just like how I can't remember anything that happened in Harry Potter. Oh well. Happy Harry Potter Week! Whatever that entails....I would tell you, but I can't remember...
Harry who??? I really like what you did to the picture of the Gila Valley Temple on your blog!
ReplyDeleteKelly, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Jeremy's always surprised at how little I remember from the books. We read them all! We read most of them together, in fact. I just can't remember. I'm just as bad with movies. But the nice thing about that is that I can watch Sense and Sensibility after not having seen it in years and not remember a good deal of it, so it's a nice surprise again.
ReplyDeleteHappy Harry week! Don't you think this little guy should be named Harry? ;)
