I have to relate a kinda funny thing that happened at my house last
weekend. My (much) younger boyfriend (he's 20) was upstairs giving his
snake a bath. Yes, you read that right. The snake is shedding and loves
baths. Anyway Dale was upstairs and he yelled down "hon can you do me a
favour?" "Okay" I yelled back. "Can ya bring me up a coke, a smoke and
the next Harry Potter book!"

I had been bragging about the books for months. I decided one night,
when there was nothing to do, to read him a chapter of the first one. I
love to read aloud (its unfortunately I have no kids). I can do a killer
British accent, and I do a different, voice for each character. Well,
one chapter turned into one then two then three. After I had read the
fourth one aloud my voice began to fade. So he read the rest himself
that night. He came to bed at 2am. He read the second book the next
night. The third night was 'snake bath night'.

Anyway I thought it was rather humorous.
