What will you be doing?

[Andromeda]

My 6-year-old daughter and I will go to the HP party at our Borders 
bookstore (which has been completely redecorated with HP-styled signs, 
etc) and get our preordered copy at midnight.  Or I will at least; 
it's a little late for her, but they're having lots of fun activities 
for the kids.  My husband has promised to take the kids to the beach 
on Saturday so I can immerse myself in HBP.  So I don't plan to stay 
up all night... I like the idea of just reading the chapter titles 
(and maybe jacket sleeve.... maybe chapter one, I am dying to read 
this famous first chapter....), then sleeping on it.  POssibly 
literally.  I can't see anyone prying that book out of my hands, even 
in my sleep, until I'm done.

When OOP came out I had a newborn baby and spent several days carrying 
the baby in one hand and "the tome" in the other, propping it up on a 
nursing pillow, etc.  Worked just fine, but I'm really looking forward 
to having some uninterrupted quality time with HBP.

My foolish bookclub went and scheduled a meeting this Thursday... and 
it isn't even remotely HP-related.  How can I read this other book 
when I need to re-read GOF and OOP in preparation? Humpf.
