Did you ever have a lot to say, and absolutely no energy/will/urge to post any of it? It is late. Maybe I just need to get some sleep.
Did see HP7.2 today. I will admit that I shed a tear or three at various times, but even so, I was disappointed. The story arc went off the rails for me from Half-Blood Prince on, and never really got back on. Note to self--big moments for secondary characters do not make up for slapdash explanations and holes in plot. Got home in time to watch a good part of RotK, and the contrasts slapped me upside the head. The characters in the Ring trilogy developed over the course of the films; Harry, Hermione, and Ron seemed to diminish. I don't like saying that, because I still love the films. But something went missing along the way to the end, never to be found.
Oh well.
Saw Yo-Yo Ma Friday night. He was delightful.
Tired now.
