And Cyn, I am incredibly jealous of your chance to go see J.K. Rowling. She has created an amazing amalgamation of fantasy and references to Western culture in the Harry Potter series.

This was the second time I got to see her. I'm quite lucky in that respect. First time in Radio City Music Hall last year and now Carnigie Hall. It is really amazing to see all the kids cheering about reading a book.
