I’m Sorry Ms. Rowling, I Am For Real

I am not a hater. I am not religiously against it. I am not too cool for it. I am just not really that into Harry Potter.

Call me a muggle, but I haven’t read the books; I think I saw a few of the movies, but I’m pretty sure I missed the last one. Anyways, it just wasn’t for me, and it wasn’t for lack of effort.

I’m sorry Ms. Rowling, I tried; It wasn’t you, it was me. Maybe it is my lack of adventure, maybe it is because I didn’t get into the books soon enough, maybe it was the fact that “err” is used about 1,587 times in the first book, and I have yet to ever say “err” when contemplating what to say next.

Whatever the case, while all you Pott Heads take to the streets, I will be mugging it alone. So, here is my call to anyone who is in the same boat as I am. We need to stick together. Hey, if singles can make it through Valentines Day, and if Vanderbilt fans can make it through bowl season, then dang, we non-fans can make it through the Harry Potter premiere. The Non-Potter support group begins now. Hit me up.
