Woot woot!! I actually saw it! I saw the midnight showing! And (best of all in my opinion) I didn't have to pay!!!
So here I was, last night at 10ish, bemoaning the fact that I couldn't go see Harry Potter. (Well, in all truthfulness I was thinking about going to bed and I really wasn't too distraught about it.) Anyway, so I'm on facebook and I see my friend's status which was something along the lines of "I now have a spare ticket for HP 6" So I questioned him and it turned out that he was going to go on a date but the girl is having heart surgery on Saturday morning and really wasn't feeling well. So, jokingly I said, "Ooh ooh ooh! I'll go with you!" Next thing I know I'm getting a phone call and later asking dad if I could go on a date with a male from about 11 to 3....which by the way went over absolutely hilariously! Especially since this male was one that dad had taught who had graduated last year, and well--dad didn't have HIGHEST opinion of him per say.
Anyway, so I finally got permission and off I went on a date to see Harry Potter!! It was a really fun date and we chatted in line and we chatted waiting for the movie to start (to be truthful again, it was mostly me chatting) and we almost strangled the kid sitting next to us halfway during the movie, and we laughed at the poor couple that got popcorn dumped on their heads right at the climax of the movie (which caused the girl to scream), and we laughed at the people sleepily staggering down the stairs at the end of the movie. It was really fun!
The movie was excellent- of course it differed slightly from the book but what movie doesn't? But overall I quite liked it. That's all I'll say because I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but it was good! And I got to see it!! And I got to go to the midnight showing!!
Ah, awesome days!!!
(And can I just say that I find this even more ironic because at about 9:30 I had been talking to Dieuwke and she asked me if I was going to go see it. I mournfully said no because I hadn't been invited to go see it with anyone and I wasn't going alone. She sympathized with me and the phone call ended....an hour later.. :D )

Thinking about seeing it today...not sure how the girls will handle it though. It looks really good. I'm glad you were able to enjoy a fun evening despite the fact you were supposed to be working on student loan stuff. That would explain why you disappeard last night though...
