Potter Precog./Dark Knight Dial-up

4 July 2008

1) 9 p.m.: Whenever I think of the Harry Potter movies, the first scene I recall is from the first one, when Ron says to Harry about Hermione, "She really needs to get her priorities straight." Tonight, in-between episodes of The Twilight Zone, I switched over to ABC Family to see whether it was still showing the marathon of That '70s Show. What I saw was that Harry Potter scene, right at Ron's line.

2) 9:10 p.m.: I listened to a voice mail message that Carl had left me earlier. I wondered what he could possibly be calling about, since we hadn't been in contact for almost a week. The only thought that came to mind was that he wanted to "remind" me of our "plans" to see The Dark Knight on July 18. Surely enough, that was the first thing he mentioned.
