Harry Potter Re-Read with buddies! 
 It turns out that I didn't miss much the first time I read this more than a decade ago, but that's not an issue. I still loved the story. It helps that I've watched the movie like a gazillion times. 
 Sometimes it's all about introducing a new generation to basilisks and evil diaries and old socks. :) 
 Sometimes it's all about hating muggles. 
 I hate muggles! Ahem. I mean, sometimes muggles really get on my nerves. :) And sometimes the deserve everything they get. Hmmm. I get the impression, sometimes, that I might have done very well in Slytherin. :) 
 But alas, the test has me firmly in Hufflepuff. I'm okay with that. Really. :)
