I'm not dead, I'm just resting. Should be applying for jobs but I'm actually just taking some time out, reading all the Harry Potter books again seeing as the 5th movie is out (don't see it, it's pretty bad) and the 7th and last book will be out on Saturday.
Can't wait until Saturday, actually. I've volunteered to go on the Gleebooks Express (they called it the Gleewarts Express last time but apparently Warner Bros thought that was too close to Hogwarts and had some kind of legal tousle with Gleebooks, who I may add is a tiny 'chain' of book stores at two locations in Glebe - WB are wankers) so I'll be at Central Station at ruddy 4AM but about to have the time of my life. Well, I'm going to be one of the first people to touch the book even if I won't be able to read it until later on that weekend.
My friend Lee Tran did note how amazing it was to think that millions of people will be reading the same book at the same time in different languages. Will there ever be a moment in history quite like it?
I'm counting my sleeps.
