Midnight Excursions

"Now Harry, you must know all about Muggles, tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?"
--Mark Williams as Mr. Weasley in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.


The evercool Miss Rixie and Sister ran to WaldenBooks last night, where they were greeted by two witches handing out Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and stood in line with several Muggles until midnight. At which point they were allowed in the store to purchase their books. Only, as it turns out, there were no books to buy. The pair made a Mad Dash to Wal-Mart where, luckily, there were piles of books. The duo promptly swept up three copies, ripped an advertisement off the wall, and ran for the check out. They arrived home at shortly before 1:30. Just enough time to read for a couple hours before going to bed. Aaah, the life of the enlightened.
