Count me in.  Before I leave the house on Friday, I plan on making a 
stack of sandwiches -- enough to last until Sunday night.  Then, I 
will be partying with fellow HP fans from 7 or 8 pm until midnight.  
During that time, I will be eating dinner, playing HP trivia, 
chatting, sharing the sherbet lemons and peppermint humbugs I bought 
when I was in London, and just being social.  The second I get the 
book in my hands, I will not be fit for any sort of human contact for 
a day or two.  The dog will be lucky to get walked, and the cats will 
have to yowl very loud to get fed.  The phone will remain unanswered, 
the email will remain unchecked, the door will remain locked, and the 
curtains will remain closed for the rest of the weekend.
