OMG I did it!

tarotgalOMG I did it! I bought a motorized LEGO Hogwarts Express! I shouldn't have. It was incredibly expensive. But I keep bidding on eBay and losing and there was one at Amazon for not too much more than what they go for on eBay. So I saved myself further years of angst and forgetfulness and worry and just went ahead and did it. OMG I'm so excited. I've never had a motorized LEGO train before.
This means I now own every LEGO Harry Potter set! Until the spring when the video game comes out. And until this summer when the board game comes out. And until the fall when the new sets come out. Then I'll own 4 different Hogwarts Expresses *shakes head* But only this one will be motorized! Squee!
Hey, it could be worse. I could have spent $2,500 on this Serenity replica: http://www.thinkhero.com/2010/02/27/awesome-but-expensive-serenity-replica-video/
There's an Accio Books kickoff party at 4pm EST online and I'll be able to catch the first half an hour of that before heading to a Harry Potter party this evening. Not a lot of people are signed up to come (which is a shame) but I'm still looking forward to the fun. I bought fruit tarts and fruit and iced tea because I just don't have the energy to bake/cook/be creative today.
I just got back from mailing two packages out to soldiers in Iraq. And I took the gazillion piles of recycling to the recycling center today (I had far too much to put out by the curb for weekly pickup).
Now I have about an hour to kill before I have to get ready to go. I really should spend it looking up videos... but I think I'm going to try to get some fic written instead.
