Guys.

I am in Harry Potter heaven right now.

Because you know what? To yoink a phrase of Katie, I am in HARRYPOTTERLAND. Seriously.

So last night was the big premier thing where all the famous people get to go see the movie. You know where it was? A fifteen minute walk down the road from here. lkjsaflkajslgfkjasghsakjajksfhkasjg. Yeah. I was there. NOWHERE NEAR AS CLOSE AS I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE BEEN. All my pictures are complete crap. If not for the fact that I was in Canterbury until half an hour before everything started I would have been camped out from first thing that morning. No lie. IT WAS FUN ANYHOW! And if you've seen the interviews you probably have heard that it was absolutely pouring rain for a good while there. I was so drenched.

Then this afternoon I went down to Waterstones on Trafalgar Square (I know this is not the massive massive one, but it's still going to be kick ass and that's where everyone *I* know is going to be) and paid for my book! ONLY $18. About. I dunno what the EXACT exchange is, but it was £8.99. Which is seriously awesome. Apparently it would have been DOUBLE THAT had I waited till the 21st. Holy crap.

This evening we had a London Walks tour booked. A HARRY POTTER LONDON WALKS TOUR. Amaaaaaazing. The guide was fantastic. He was this sweet old man, incredibly dynamic, and when he showed up he was wearing a red vest, a black jacket, red pants, had a kerchief in his pocket and a red rose. It was adorable. What made it WICKED was all through the tour [which was about all the little things that INSPIRED HP and all the history and walking around to various places and we saw the place that inspired Diagon Alley, some history about Flamel, etc!], but all through the tour he'd be leading us and then turn around at the next stop and LO AND BEHOLD! the vest was a different color! AMAZING. Haven't worked out how he did that either. He also would SHOOT OFF FIRE and do other little magic tricks all through it. I love him. I now have a magically-appearing wand trick. WICKED AWESOME. And like, everyone has picked up on how incredibly into HP I am. >.> It was hilarious.

AND WHEN THE MOVIE COMES OUT: I am going to see it in the Odeon. IE the theatre that's all jazzed up for it where the PREMIER was. aksjfhajshasjfhsajhasjfh

IN OTHER EXCITING NEWS:

This weekend I am going to Dublin! And if Rabid ever checks his mail and CALLS ME I might actually get to see him. >| Odds are he won't though. Because he can be highly lame like that.

LAST weekend we went to London Pride. HOLYCRAPSOAWESOME. MASSIVE parade, a bajillion people, a CONCERT. Darren Hayes of Savage Garden fame was there. I SQUEAKED. And it was all entirely free. I took a million pictures.

We also went to STONEHENGE which was amazing and awesome and I thought I might get blown off the hill but I did NOT! Huzzah. It was very windy but DID NOT RAIN, which is impressive.

And now that I got sidetracked for HOURS while doing this on account of six people showing up at my door so I could organize this Dublin thing, I am tired and ending now.

ILU ALL.
