Ah, back when we didn't know Dumbledore was gay...
I can't believe I never posted these. *is a procrastinator* They're my pictures of the Deathly Hallows release party at Borders. It's the one year anniversary of the book, so I figure now is as good a time as any.
Read about the party
Read my reaction to the book
My top, skirt, and tie. I think the Ravenclaw colors are actually blue and bronze, I must've had a weird source image.
Quibbler! I photoshopped these, and taped them onto a TV Guide. Front cover. Back cover.
Real radish earrings. They were heavy, and they were new piercings, and I don't think my ears ever recovered.
Bottlecap necklace. Took forever, but it was worth it.
James in his Maurader's Map shirt. It was a late-night rush job, so the map isn't really accurate and I just sort of put the characters in random places.
Back view.
Me in my Luna Lovegood costume. It was a really sunny day.
Plastic wand.
Oh yeah.
Is that John Krasinski?
My girl Ashley with her awesome "nail polish on a stick from my yard" wand I made her for Half-Blood Prince. Also, my mom.
Hogwarts miniature.
Foam skeleton of a dragon, I guess. Hagrid!
Potions at the Borders coffee shop.
Me and Ashley learn from Sirius' mistakes, and don't fall into the Curtain of Death.
Me, Ashley, and her sister Lydia in the Floo Network.
James' shirt again.
We ventured out into the mall to look at the HP stuff at Hot Topic.
Hogwarts miniature, reverse angle. Love the car!
Me at Platform 9 3/4.
Ashley.
Lydia
James
Moody gets a sticker for first death. *stick*
James was magician's assistant. I think he just had to hold the toilet paper and the magician would stuff a bunch of it in his mouth and then pull out a paper chain.
Note that James is taller than the magician.
In line for the costume contest. The guy looking straight at the camera was supposed to be Mundungus. He was cool.
Check out that Umbridge!
Group shot: Lydia, Ashley, Me, James.
They tell me Voldemort danced, but I was never there to see it.
The kid who played Harry Potter in Imperius Curse Theatre. (See link at top of post.)
Hermione.
Ashley wants her book!
I fly high on a broom.
Ashley looks high on a broom.
Lydia too.

Decorations.
Oliver Wood.
My mom at Platform 9 3/4, sans cart for some reason.
I've always loved this poster.
And so it begins.
My awesome nails, and my ticket. If this number shows up the mythology of my shows, you'll know where it came from.
Free poster! It's hanging up in my basment, and Ashley's is in her room.
This man may or may not be in costume.

This is what fandom does to you. (I get emotional just looking at the book on my shelf.)
These are the result of too much squee and not enough sleep:
Here's to you, Harry. Cheers, mate. <3
