I thought I was safe.

And then MB broke the rules and tagged me, too. So I guess my assignment is to list my current six favorite songs and then pick six others to do the same.

OK, my songs are, in no particular order:

1. Redneck Woman by Gretchen Wilson
2. Beer for My Horses by Toby Keith and Willie Nelson
3. You'll Think of Me by Keith Urban
4. Break Down Here by Julie Roberts
5. Speed by Montgomery Gentry
6. When You Come Back to Me Again by Garth Brooks

I think I'll be blaring the country music this weekend, thanks to this.

Now I'm supposed to tag six others. Problem with that is I don't know six other bloggers ... I admit it, I'm a lurker and love to read but never comment! I like to browse through MB's blogroll, but I thought it would be quite rotten to use her list here since she found them.

Anyway, since I don't have a lot of options for tagging, I'll choose Tasha and if any of her fellow bloggers feel like doing it, they can too!

I didn't get around to checking out the picture stuff here yet, so maybe that'll be my weekend project whilst bringing down the roof with fiddles and steel guitars. Or maybe I'll look at that flickr thing. In reality, I probably won't do either, but at least I'm thinking about it.

So, guess what? Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince comes out in two weeks! I absolutely can't stand it! I saw a picture at work Wednesday night of stacks and stacks and stacks of the books at a warehouse somewhere on the East Coast (AP wasn't allowed to disclose the location), and I was so fucking jealous of the people standing next to them! Do you think any of them snuck a peek at the first chapter? I WOULD! I wouldn't be able to stop myself! All those books, begging to be read! And Jim Dale, the guy who records them on tape, he's already done the tapes and knows what happens! I have never wanted to be a British man before now. (That means I want to be Jim Dale, for those of you who are having trouble keeping up)

For Order of the Phoenix, I stayed up until about 7 a.m. reading, got a bit of sleep, and had that thing finished by the end of the day. And it is quite a hefty book, ya know.

The worst thing is that my uncle is having a family cookout the day Half Blood Prince comes out, and I'm pretty sure many aunts and uncles, not to mention my parents, would be a bit pissed if we didn't go because I had to spend the day reading. So, Dave is still going to get the book at midnight, along with the tapes, I'm going to read the first chapter as soon as he gets home, and then we'll listen to the book on the way to my uncle's house. And maybe I'll hide in a corner with the book book, because I really just cannot wait to read the damn thing! Two Weeks!

Oh yeah, and my birthday is in one week. But in two weeks I'll know who the half blood prince is and who dies! Priorities people!
