We've never gone to one of the B&N Midnight Parties for Harry Potter before and we figured that since this is the last book, we should probably experience it. We pre-ordered our book a few weeks ago and stopped by last night to pick up our wristband before heading to dinner. We arrived back at about 9:00, which gave me a chance to peruse books, the boys complete the Trivia, have pictures made, enjoy a frap, and make snitches before getting in line at 11:00 for the 12:01 sell start. I am not even going to go into the story of the linebreaker and why I will not go back to the B&N on Forest Drive because I want to dwell on the enjoyablility of the event.
We did enjoy talking with strangers, people watching and just participating in the mayhem. The boys had a good time and the biggest argument of the night was whether Clay or I should get to read the book first. (I voted that since I was paying, I should get too!) Clay won....he agreed to get up and take Maggie out this morning so I could catch up on sleep from the week and I felt too guilty not letting him read it first. Actually,I have reading to do for my class next week and didn't want to be too distracted. I did tell him that he needs to HURRY!!
The boys and their snitches.
Me and Ben in the big long line.....we all had our pictures taken in the glasses, but they're polaroids and I don't have a way to get them on here.
