half-blood prince...

i've just begun chapter 9, called 'the half-blood prince' in the book by the same name... so far, there are some surprises. i'd be further along in reading if i hadn't gone to the cubs game yesterday... don't get me wrong, i was happy to go to the game. it was loads of fun, even though i didn't watch any of the game. we were too busy talking and goofing around for me to watch at all. also, when i went to the bathroom it took a long time to get in & out...even with the trough-style bathrooms at wrigley field.

we even got there in time to get one of the 10,000 hats they were handing out. it was awesome.
