Some friends had a HP party several years ago. They made their own sorting hat for the night!

Oh, I'd love to have an HP party!  I wish I was going to one tonight.  :(

I went to one for OOP and was so disappointed, nobody was dressed up and there weren't really any games or anything.  I'm not gong this year-sd arrives tomorrow so tonight we're going to enjoy our last night alone together for a month.

Have you read that a couple places in the USA mistakenly put out the new book and several ppl bought and in one place a judge ruled that the ppl could not read it or if they had started could not disclose what was in it...it was on CNN online.

Just got back from town and saw two little girls and their grandma heading for the High Street.  The girls were wearing witch costumes, it was the cutest thing I've ever seen!  I told them they looked so cute and to have fun.  They were beaming!!!  Looked so excited!  Their Grandma did as well!  Oh now I wish I had gone down to see the rest of them!!!

Got mine too!!! I'm so excited!!!

But here's my problem. I really wanted to re-read the last HP book before starting on this one. I feel like I've forgotten what was happening, and a refresher would be smart. However, I'm in the middle of Cloud Atlas at the moment -- and it's turning out to be one of the best books I've read in ages. No way am I interrupting that! But after Cloud Atlas, I have to read my Book Club book before our July meeting. This means it's going to be ages before I can start on HP! Aaaaarrrrgggh!

I made the fourteen year old turn her light off at 2:30am.   :)  She's about half way through.
