The End of a Decade

I FINALLY got to go to Harry Potter tonight! I wish I could tell you that I don't get too excited about Harry Potter, and it's not really a big deal to me; but that would be a lie. When it comes to Harry Potter, I am definitely a nerd. For the most part, if the rest of the world is in an excited frenzy about something, I am not. Usually when things become overly popular, it turns me off to them. Harry Potter is my weakness. I just love it. I read all of the books as they came out, I've been to my fair share of HP midnight showings, and I just finished re-reading the whole series to prep myself for the last movie. That was a very enjoyable experience for me. The books are definitely better than the movies and have a lot more detail, so it was fun to go back and read them again. Probably you have all already seen it so I'm not going to go on and on about it. Mostly I am just on a Harry Potter High right now. I am pretty sad that it's all over now. Harry has been part of my life for a very long time, and now I have to be done with him. No more buying the new book the day it comes out and not being able to put it down. No more midnight shows. No more wondering if freaking Voldemort will ever die. But don't worry, I will continue to read the books and watch the movies for the rest of my life probably. And I will make my children do so as well. And they will love them.
