had one today.  It all started with a trip to Wal-Mart on my way 
home from work.  Needed to pick up some pictures, you know, and 
might as well make a pass by the magazines.  Well, sure enough, 
there was Harry on the cover of something or another.  I thinkit's 
official name is J-14 Life Story Movie Magic Deluxe Collector's 
Edition.  Anyway, it's about half Harry Potter, and has some 
adorable pictures I haven't seen anywhere else.  For ten bucks it 
better.  There was also some teeny-bopper music magazine that just 
happened to have CoS poster inside. So I had to get it too.  
Naturally.  Then on my way to pick up a couple of twelve packs of 
Coca-Cola (HP collector cards, you know) I saw it.  Harry Potter 
dishes.  You know, those they usually do for Barbie and Disney 
stuff?  I had one from SS with Harry on his broomstick.  Well, this 
set had Harry and Ron in the flying car over Hogwarts Express on the 
plate, Harry on his broomstick on the bowl, and the flying car and 
Hedwig on the glass.  So I got that too.

We do a Christmas gift exchange, and it's a bit early.  Who cares, I 
opened it.  First thing I saw?  Harry Potter gift bag.  Inside it?  
Harry Potter Hallmark ornament--Harry in the invisibility cloak.  I 
mean putting on the invisibility cloak.  You can still see him, of 
course. :)  And all of the packages were wrapped in--you guessed 
it.  Harry Potter wrapping paper.

Oh, I do thank the heavens for you people!  :D  You make me feel 
so...normal.  Hehe!  I am the only person in my circle that is a HP 
addict, and I seem to amuse them all.  Honestly, I don't care.  
Everyone has their thing, and it just so happens I adore Harry 
Potter.  And the magazines, and the toys.....I'm crossing my fingers 
for the Hogwart's castle this Christmas!  I am sooooo very glad I 
found HPfGU last year.  I feel less alone, don't you, Richelle?  And 
I feel better coming in and sitting down and reading all the 
messages on the book discussion, here and at the movie site, after 
one of my relatives slams me for indulging in "evil Harry Potter."  
So, thank you, Richelle, for making me feel better tonight!  I 
needed it - very much!
