I just finished reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, so now I am almost caught up with all the kids these days. This is the second Harry Potter book for me that did not turn out to be a page turner. I never did finish reading Prisoner of Azkaban, I think there were a lot of other things going on at the time, and then the movie came out so I just watched that instead.
Order of the Phoenix wasn't bad, it just wasn't nearly as interesting as, oh say, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I hate to admit that I would put down a book to watch TV, but I did. Many many times.
We are now watching the fifth season of Buffy goodness. My favorite character on the show hands down is Spike. I don't know what we are going to do when we've finished watching all the Buffys there are to watch. Maybe go back and watch them all again :)
Kris is gone for the afternoon, and while I have not been expressly forbidden to watch Buffy without him, I doubt that it would go over very well if I "previewed" the rest of the season. So I'm off to find some other way to amuse myself...

Yay.
Now we just have to wait for Athena to finish it. You all can talk about it in Waco.
Too bad I can't come.
I actually really liked the book. I flew through it, reading the last 400 pages until 3am on a work night.

You need to then start watching Angel. Spike shows up in season 4 (I believe, the first season after Buffy ended), and he's more of a riot in that than he was in Buffy.

I love it that you are hooked on Buffy!
It's a real letdown when you get to the end and there are no more shows to watch.
