QotD: I Felt Butterflies

When was the last time you felt butterflies in your stomach?

When I was standing in line at 10pm on Friday, July 20th 2007 to get my hands on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by midnight-oh-one. I was jittery, I was geeked, I was fourth in line! Midnight-oh-one rolled around and I got the book and hurried to the registers where I paid and was out the door by 12:07. Reading commenced by 12:30 and after a short sleep around 5am, a brief morning read and then a party attended from 2-7pm I finished the book at 10:40pm.

I am glad I rushed through the book, the risk of a spoiler was great. After Andrew reads it I'll reread it, slower and savor the book more. It is a bizarre feeling that something I've dedicated eight years of my life to has come to an end. I loved the book but will discuss all of that and more later.
