The End of an Era...

thescarletwomanSo tonight, I head with my folks to the Midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Pt 2.
There's a part of me that cannot get over that in a little over six hours, I'll be sitting in the theatre as the lights dim and the film begins. I've dedicated so much of my life to this fandom and the books... and soon the last one will be airing.
It's hard to believe.
So, for now, the folks and I will finish watching HP7.1 in our re-watch of the films. I'm sad I didn't get to do my re-read before tonight, but without having ebooks it was hard to do so. Alas.
To those of you going to showings tonight, enjoy them. It's been an amazing ride and we always will have our fandom even as the films usher in the final chapter.
But for now, I leave you with this:
7 books, 3407 pages, 1 million words. 8 movies, 1179 minutes. 14YearsHarryPotter
