Lauras 2, 30.

- On Friday at midnight, Jess and I went out and picked up Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. We stayed in pretty much all weekend, reading to each other and eating Indian food and tortilla soup. We finished up on Sunday night. So expect me to be gushing about that later this week (although I won't casually post any spoilers...).
Today it's rainy and I'm tired and grouchy.

- QUESTION OF THE DAY -
