Page 167 (or thereabouts), HP Snapshot

Lemme see… Our friends are in a muggle cafe where Ron has just made a disparaging comment about cappuccino, angering the waitress. Suddenly, the next table turns out to be death eaters. They attacked and our friends were immediately on the defense. There’s some stuff I don’t quite understand about wands and spells and Ron ends up wrapped up in some kind of stuff. And then I had to quit reading. I couldn’t even finish the chapter. I don’t know what happens next and don’t anybody tell me. I’ve already seen some spoilers. A kid on one of my flute loop groups got so excited he let some stuff spill. And was chastised. And apologized *profusely*. Poor kid. Old tired mooms like me just don’t usually have big blocks of time available to sit around and read books. Even Harry Potter books. I’m coding for an internship this week. Web work, when you are scrabbling for whatever little jobs you can get, is like that. You work when you have the work. And this is a free internship. I’m not getting paid. But it’ll be a great portfolio piece and I’m working with some fantastic people. And it’s *coding*! I love coding and I need more practice with it. So I’m happy. But I do *not* have time to read.

    I am having a hard time finding time to read also. I am only on the 4th Harry Potter book and I.m afraid that I will find out the “end” of the story before I have had a chance to read the rest of this book and the rest. Hopefully, everyone, including the stupid news media, wll keep their traps shut. Good luck with your coding job! Hope it leads to something great for you. Love, Kathy
