When I saw the teaser that said, "Sit down Harry, I'm going to tell

The disappointing part of books 6+7 is that they are supposedly 
the last of the series. As I raced through OOP, I reflected on the 
months I waited for it's release. When I hit the mid-point (in 36 
hours), I realized how many pages were left (only). When I finished, 
the anguish over Sirius' death was compounded by my anguish that the 
next book is probably years away from my mailbox. Strangely, I'm now 
anxious that there are only two books left in Harry's existence, 
even though that may be 4-6 years and several movies into the 
future. Here's hoping for a second series, in a full-blown, 
unabashed  "adult" style!
