What’s on Your Nightstand is a monthly meme hosted by 5 Minutes for Books on the last Tuesday of every month that summarizes what you’ve read for the month, what you’re currently reading, and what you plan to read next. For my posts, I also include articles, music, art, TV shows, and whatever else I did in the month.
July: It started out great before descending into a wormhole of stress. I wish I’d gotten some forewarning so I could have prepared for it. The last couple days have been so stressful that I’ve even had to take a break from here. Pounding tension headaches prevented me from spending much time on the computer, so I was unable to blog. I did read a lot, though, but didn’t complete much, mostly because the book I was focused on is quite long.
But earlier in the month was great. The biggest and best thing I did was visit Diagon Alley at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at the Universal Studios theme park in Orlando, Florida. It was great. 😀 It was both all I expected and not enough. It looked almost as it was presented in the movie, but didn’t exactly match what I had in mind as I read the books. Only Knockturn Alley came close to what I had in mind. It was so creepy and cold down there. It was really cool to see a dragon perched atop Gringotts Bank and it freaked the hell outta me when it roared and blew fire. I was not expecting that!
