Happy Birthday, Harry.

This Saturday, July 28th, is Harry Potter's birthday. (Any fan worth their floo powder ought to know that. ETA: So I am totally not worth my floo powder, I just got misled by Erin. Pffft. So, new question: Saturday, an early birthday? or Tuesday, his real birthday?) & because dorkiness is a given, because there's no bad excuse to have fun, & because we're both going through withdrawl, my mum & I are throwing a Harry Potter Birthday Party that evening. There will be pumpkin pasties (I hope). There will be butterbeer (if we can find a recipie that works). There will be watching of movies (probably three or four, as those are my favorites, but if you want to bring others, feel free). There will be games & fun & much hanging out & being geeky together.
If people arrive who haven't read Deathly Hallows yet, I will without remorse strictly keep it a spoiler-free zone.

So. Anyone interested? Let me know, & I'll make another f-locked post later with my address & times & so forth.

Also, I find myself wanting a Harry Potter icon. I need an overhaul. Sad as it is, I'll probably let go of Maggie d'Anjou....

In other news, Colleen's going away party was last night...there was loudness (Elspeth always goes with the obnoxious people! Hah!), & laughter & crying & cake & drinks at the Rosebud. It was fun.

And before I run off, one last note: Sleeping beauty strikes again.
