I'm not sure how I'd react (imo) if I met me coming back in
time. Possibly, I'd just chalk it up to my impending nervous breakdown
(any day now!) and not think another thought about it.

But! Speaking of the third book and time travel (and the fact that
all time-related events have already happened and are already part of
the story line), I just love reading the sections that hint at time
travel before you get to the part that explains what Hermione's been
doing. Does that make sense? For instance, here's my favorite "team"
of events. HR&H have just come down the stairs into the entrance hall
under the invisibility cloak. They hear a last pair of feet and a
door slam. They proceed to Hagrid's house to comfort him on the loss
of Buckbeak. Part #2. H&H have magically appeared in the entrance hall
after using the time-turner. They run across the hall to a broom closet,
slam the door, then Hermione hears the past HR&H under the cloak going
to Hagrid's. It doesn't seem like much, but I LOVE that! It's just so
subtle - although I do love the part where Harry realizes it's himself
he's seeing...

Anyway, now, back to my regularly scheduled dive into insanity...
