Kathy, wanna meet up and go to some of the events? The staged reading at 7:30 could be fun. I have to work that day, but I should be able to be back in Oak Park by 6 or 6:30.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
The staged reading at 7:30 could be fun.
That's exactly what I thought! I'll give you a call tonight (I've got your tape of Who Am I This Time to give you, as well), if you'll be around.
Did y'all see the pics from the OotP shindig? I loved the pic of Snape. Also, I had forgotten that they had some national news people covering that event (I think some footage ended up on NBC news the next day).
TAUNTERS TAUNTERS!!
Cool! I'll be home around 7-ish.

So, for how long after Harry Potter is out should we whitefont? Like, a day or 2?
Kidding!!!
It's a big-ass book -- a month, maybe?
Let us never speak of it again.
Crappity!
By the time I get back for Harry Potter discussion. You folks will be so over it.
I found out today why I haven't been able to buy a copy of Howl's Moving Castle since we saw the movie. It's been sold out for the last month. The publisher cancelled a special movie tie-in cover because they didn't think the movie would generate much interest. So...while the movie is in the theaters, you can't buy a copy of the book.
So. Fucking. Stupid.
Hec,
Huh. well, now I'm glad I got the SF Book Club 2-in-1 edition with that and "Castle in the Air"
And in Harry Potter news, apparently the con I'm going to has "HP&THBP goes on sale" as a scheduled item.(Midnight Friday. Why then? I dunno)
I dreamt last night that they made Harry Potter into a stage musical, and it actually was pretty good.
This book [link] is going to be my next purchase, although the comparisons to "Da Vinci Code" turn me off. But it looks like that's just publisher-hype.
