i am buzzing from caffeine and sugar and excitement and happiness. i would probably be similarly excited and buzzing from caffeine in the united states, as harry potter just went on sale in minnesota 14 minutes ago. how to explain... after returning from ladakh yesterday morning, arguably one of my most favorite places i have ever been, i high-tailed it to khan market to reserve my copy of the deathly hollows. over the past 8 years, hp has been a staple. i've bought the last 5 books on the day of their release, saw the first movie on the opening day and have dorkily discussed hp/ j.k. rowling happenings with the best of them.
this morning i arrived at the store as they unpacked the cardboard boxes on the sidewalk, revealing the lovely book. as i sipped my coffee at the "harry potter breakfast party," a news camera recorded me reading the first tantalizing pages. and in the back of my mind, the "t.i.i. (this is india)" sign on the door at the american embassy store. india or america, hp is loved.
