I started listening to Book 1 with Lucas last night, and I was so into it. Jim Dale's narration is superb! and I love his accent! I want Lucas to have a British accent too, so we listened to the first few chapters together then he fell asleep, but I continued to listen while I dropped EC's and clicked some Adgi ads. I love it, although I have read the book, hearing it read by someone with a british accent accompanied by feelings, was such a welcome treat. I have yet to complete the book version because it's hard to get a hold of the hard cover here because there are too many fans of the series and not enough books, you have to be on the waiting list, and I have been on the list for the longest time, so I decided I'm going to have to ask my grandmother to buy it for me, since she lives in California, and I hear they aren't as expensive there, so, she will try to get me books 2-7, I have book 1, but I won't get it until September, because that's the time she'll be coming home for a month long vacation, sure, I can have her mail it to me, but like I said, I am nearly broke, so I think I'll just wait for her.
After I put Lucas down on the bed, I put on my ear phones, turned up the volume and lost myself in Hogwarts with Harry Potter and his friends. I was happily dropping EC's and clicking Aagi ads, when all of a sudden, I came across a blog with automatic playing music, I nearly had a heart attack and jumped so high off of my seat I could've hit the ceiling! I was so startled, I swear my heart left my body for a about a full 30 seconds! It was an EC member blog. I guess the blogger who owned that blog didn't read the TOS of EC because I know for a fact EC doesn't allow automatic playing video and audio on blogs. I should know, because I remember one time I had a sponsored post that required me to put a video, and I had no idea it was automatically being played until I was told by another EC member to remove it or risk being kicked out of Entrecard. I was once told having automatically playing audio or video on blogs is a heinous crime in the blogosphere. Okay, off I go to listen to my audio book, see yah later!
