How was it? Or any of the other parties?
I was working an overnight shift, which meant I was actually getting paid overtime to take my developmentally disabled client (himself actually an HP fan) to a the B. Dalton party at Gateway....it was actually a lot of fun. I was in the "HP Idol" contest (we had to sing the "Hoggy Warty Hogwarts Song"), costume contest (Aragog on rollerskates again), we got to decorate wands, they had classes (albeit aimed at kids, they were cool), trivia contests, scavenger hunt, photo booth, a sorting hat & house competitions, and for divination class they had 2 lines for folks to get tea leaves, crystal ball, tarot, numerology, or palm readings. the only one who knew what they were doing at all was the palm reader, amateur but sincere and pretty good. the other girl did not know anything about tarot, was actually just at teen from the mall, and i actually ended up doing 3 readings at her table (since i've actually read tarot irl). I had wanted to go to Books Without Borders for the fan films and the Lord Leebrick Theatre actors, and/or to Borders for the Snape Debate and Friend or Foe vote (I would have been on the "friend" side). But those would have gone *whoosh* over the head of my client, so we went to the kid-oriented one. And it was fun!
