Media Blackout
I'm initiating a total media blackout starting tonight and continuing until I finish reading the new Harry Potter. I'm not surfing the internet, listening to the radio, and I might not even answer my phone. Honestly, I don't even trust my Mom not to start a conversation with something awful like "So, were you sad when Hermione died?"
This media blackout will take a while, because D's reading the book first. We're taking turns, because SOMEbody has to watch the baby.
I think I'll even refrain from tv that broadcasts after midnight tonight. But it seems like Scrubs reruns are probably safe.

You can count on me not to spoil it for you. I've been wondering myself how to avoid hearing spoilers, since I figure it will take ages to read it. Unless, of course we decide to hire a babysitter for the first time so that we can read!
I will not spoil it for anyone. I promise. Probably because everyone will finish before me. But that is only 'cause my book is shipping tomorrow, not arriving tomorrow.
What a sad thing to feel rushed while reading for fear of spoilers, but I'll do it anyway!
On one hand, I wish people would stay silent for a week or so. But on the other, I know they are going to want to talk - because whatever happens, it will be big. And people will want support.
And the mean people will want to be mean.
