1. How long will it take you to read it

once you have it in your hot little hands:applause:? Will you sleep:boring: or read it slowly and thoroughly:think:? Will you read the web for spoilers:dilemma:? Will you be able to restrain yourself when others have not read it? :banghead:

:hi:

[davidinalameda]

2. I'll tear through it in about 12 hours

sleep? you've got to be kidding


and no spoilers!

3. 84 days - time to get going on my costume

The bookstore here did a big party with costumes and all sorts of fun. Last time, I dressed as Prof. Sprout, but this year, I'm thinking perhaps Molly.

Alternately, I'm thinking about Bellatrix. Very few people ever dress as the baddies (though the most effective costume I saw last time was a young man dressed as Malfoy.)

4. That is the coolest thing!

I have decided to get two books via Amazon AND go into the store at midnight. Kind of like a great Halloween Party in July! I have a cloak that I shall work on to add some embellishments...hmmmm :think:

5. No costumes here - but I found these great HP T-Shirts at a discount

store. I got some of them for a house selection ceremonial I did at my daughter's birthday. Of course, we'll wear them on July 16 - my daughter and I.

8. There's always

Umbridge

:-D

Pink cardigan time....

[politicat]

14. Hell no!

I own and would wear again clothing appropriate to Bellatrix. There is no way in HELL I would ever own either an Alice band or a pink cardigan. Ever. Under any circumstances.

And while I have gained weight this year, I'm not that round.

Considering recent injuries, I think I might be going as McGonegall, since she has a cane and limps during part of OOP (I Think.) I believe I will still be on the cane or the canadian crutch at that point.

6. I have 3 on order

and I still might hit the Barnes and Noble in my area

there's a small Waldenbooks close to me but I don't know if they're going to do anything

[radfringe]

7. WHOOO-WHOOO

I just pre-ordeded it!!
can't wait....

[XemaSab]

9. I will probably read it in two sittings

however last time I spent two days reading it on and off and off and it was a great time.

Camping in the woods for a project... read, work, read, watch butterflies, read, etc.

[davidinalameda]

10. wuss!

:)

two sittings

what kind of Harry Potter fan are you?

LOL

[XemaSab]

11. The kind that falls asleep reading

at around one every night.

:-)

[davidinalameda]

12. I'd do that too if I didn't have to get up at 6

[XemaSab]

13. I have to get up at 7.

Hence, the reading in 2 sittings. :-)

[davidinalameda]

15. on a Sunday morning?

God will understand

[XemaSab]

16. More importantly

the pastors at the church will understand.

I'd be surprised if they don't call in sick themselves.

[davidinalameda]

17. LOL

[Pithy Cherub]

18. Have we contemplated the TWO YEAR WAIT

after we finish on July 16th...:hide: :rofl:

[ProudToBeLiberal]

[Pithy Cherub]

20. Goblet of Fire, the movie looks great!
