More anticipation

Today Gabe and I discussed the reading of the new Harry Potter book. The options were many. I could read it first and then struggle not to talk about it for a while. Gabe could read it first and struggle with me trying to steal and hide the book from him. We could get two copies. We have decided to read it together out loud every night. Gabe is concerned that I will not be able to stop from "peeking" during the day. I am too. The solution? We are going to lock it up during the day. Ohhh the sweet sweet anticipation. It is a little humbling to think...even if you are the Queen of England or a star in the movies or an ordinary (yet quite extraordinary) teacher...you have to wait until Sat at 12:01 AM. Unless I guess you are JK Rowling's editor. I wonder if they have to sign confidentiality papers. In my case...we are waiting until Sat afternoon because it is being delivered. (Unlike babies- you do know when the mail is coming!!)
