SSSusan:
I say tomayto
You say tomahto
I say patronuses
You say patroni

Hey, I like patroni better.  I'm changing how I refer
to them from here on in.

SSSusan:
Hadrid -- a dragon
Lupin -- a dungbeetle (something for Dot)
Snape -- a bat
Sirius -- something that eats bats... (what eats
bats?) so's his patronus could bully Snape's bat
patronus
Molly -- a mama grizzly bear


As for me, I'll be at Barnes & Noble at midnight with
my 9-year-old daughter and will read for a couple of
hours tonight after we make the 40-minute trip home. 
However, I will then, quite exaspiratedly, be at a
6-hour retreat tomorrow, thinking over & over, "This
is so STUPID; I could be reading."  

I still have hopes of holding a copy in my hand this
afternoon, however.  I do library acquisitions, and I
can see from the UPS tracking that our copy is HERE IN
TOWN.  Just not sure if it'll be delivered before I
leave.
