I did relatively well with my self-imposed Internet ban yesterday. I only checked CNN once when I was online for work-related stuff. No accidental Harry Potter spoils anywhere.
But at 2:00 am, after putting Campbell to bed for the third time, I couldn't go back to sleep so I decided to check the headlines. After scanning CNN, I switched to Salon.com. The lead article? "Is Harry Potter's ending what everyone has been hoping for." I didn't read the artile. Instead, I cured Salon's editors and shut down the Internet. I know the article wouldn't have had any spoilers, but I still didn't want to read everyone's theories about what is going to happen.
So I've learned my lesson - no more middle-of-the-night surfing for me.
