counting down the days

ok. i admit it: i am a full on harry potter fan. go ahead, mock all you want, but only if you have read them. anyway, reading this just made my morning:

"harry potter and the half-blood prince, by j.k. rowling, the sixth in the bestselling series, has been scheduled for publication on 16th july, 2005 in the united kingdom, the united states, canada, australia, new zealand and south africa, it was announced today by bloomsbury and scholastic, her british and american publishers. on her website, www.jkrowling.com, j.k. rowling announced last night that she had completed the book and delivered the manuscript to her two english language publishers."
