Thursday Threesome

Onesome: Potter- Which Harry Potter character is your favourite? Why do you like him or her?

Pigwidgeon! Rowling created an owl with the personality of a budgie! I love it! Oh, human character. Hermoine. Because she's smart.

Twosome: Publication- Is there one publication that you just have to read? A paper you read daily, a magazine you read weekly or monthly? Newsletters? And do you buy it for the articles, or just to look at the pictures? ;) Whatever it is, tell us about it!

Reminisce magazine. I subscribe to it; love the old stories. Also Best of British, a nostalgic magazine akin to Reminisce and Period Living and Traditional Homes, which I mostly do buy for the pictures. Love to read about these folks fixing up 200+ year old houses (wouldn't fancy doing it myself).

Threesome: Party!- The festivities begin tomorrow night in bookstores across the US and England, (and elsewhere too, probably!) with fun and games for the kid in all of us. Do you plan to be there standing in the queue when the clock strikes midnight to pick up your copy of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix?

But of course. We have friends doing readings from the books that evening at a nearby Barnes & Noble. (Shameless plug to any audience this blog possibly has: Friday, beginning at 10 p.m., the Atlanta Radio Theatre Company will be appearing at the Perimeter Mall Barnes & Noble, just north of Atlanta, Georgia, doing readings from the first four Potter novels. These folks are great!)
