Waiting for Harry
Four more sleeps! I think the hardest part of the wait will be on Friday when I plan to go offline and stay offline, including email, until I've got my book and read it through.
My plan is to get up on Saturday, pre-6 AM, then go into the store with my bookstore worker SO and get my copy. Then, it's coffee before noon, Guinness after noon, and reading, reading, reading until I'm done.
I'm not going to anything that necessitates a costume, but if I were, and I could easily get any HP costume, I would dress up as Neville's grandmother. Green dress, red handbag, fox-fur (faux) scarf, and tall hat with a stuffed vulture on top. That would be properly imposing and witchy.
What's your schedule? And your costume, real or imagined?

My plans are sadly very well thought-out: Housecleaning Friday night, both as distraction and so I have a more pleasant atmosphere for reading. Maybe I'll also make some fun snacks for Saturday.
Hit the bookstore around 9am, unless I can convince my husband to go for me. I hate crowds and lines, and I'm not looking forward to driving home with the big distracting book sitting beside me.
Reading all day Saturday, with a short break to deliver a copy of the book to my sister. I would prefer to spread the reading out over two days, but I have some committments on Sunday, so I'll see if I can get it done on Saturday without rushing. My main reading goal is to be alone when I'm reading the last few chapters - I really hate interruptions at the end of a book.
My imaginary costume - Winky the house-elf. Big red clown nose, dirty clothes, and a (butter)beer in hand!
