Would they have a problem with that?

Sad to see the old neighborhood change.
Sounds like yours may be perking up, though.
Let's hope so.
So many people have no pride in ownership.
I don't understand that.
Savor, Freddy, savor.
It's the only way to read.

I love to read.
And I am quite sure that this will be the last time I read the HP books for quite some time, so I really do want to enjoy them thoroughly.

Me too.
And I am enjoying them much more than I even thought I would.
I'll probably read them again someday, but probably not for a while.

:lookaroun You're not going to make me shave my head and chant are you?
Maybe :lookaroun - I think they're a little tired of hearing about Disney. Seriously, I feel a little guilty at times when I share my enthusiasm - most people in my family will never be able to afford a trip there - and DH's job makes a lot of things more possible for us. I really don't want it to seem to them that I'm flaunting that. I just want everyone to be as excited about it as I am.

I'm very glad that I decided to reread them. I am now noticing things I never noticed in previous readings. And I had forgotten more than I realized.
Maybe its because I know what will happen.
J.K. sure does a lot of foreshadowing that I never really picked up on.
Especially about Ginny in CoS.
I'm sure that I will read them again eventually, but it most likely will not be for several years.

Dave's family doesn't understand it at all, so I just don't talk about it with them anymore. His brother and his wife spend every vacation in Atlantic City - to each his own!:lookaroun You're not going to make me shave my head and chant are you?

I know what you mean.
And I'm sure they are happy for you. But a little jealous in spite of themselves. It's human nature.

I am amazed at how much I've forgotten.
I'm getting so much more out of them this time.
I hate Atlantic City, but we have friends who love it.
And we have friends who love Mexico and others who love cruising.
To each their own . . .

For both Mike and I, our dads' idea of a vacation was staying home from work. My dad always took a trip with his brothers in the fall to Canada for fishing, but whenever we traveled, there was always a reason we had to, y'know? Not just to relax.
But I don't get the Atlantic City thing. Or the gambling thing. Mike and I went to Wheeling Downs once out of curiosity - and I found it boring. Pulling levers on machines gets old, and the smoke that hangs in the air..:hurl:
But as you said, to each their own. We went as a lark, but we have no desire to ever do that again.
Disney on the other hand....
