1. A. Shall we contemplate the idea of a giant party for DH? Have $$ - will travel! Don't we need to commemorate the great event as a large and t00by group? B. What do you love the most about your time in fandom and FA and your time working with HPEF?

2. I hope I'm doing this right . . . Characters 12, 11 and 10 are forced on a Muggle roadtrip -- what kind of car do they buy for the journey? Describe their roadtrip as they journey to visit Character 7.

1a. OMG YES. I will totally travel anywhere in North America to read this book with friends.

1b. Every single real-life meetup with other fandomers has been a wonderful and amazing experience. Other than that, I'd say the Katie O'Brien scholarships - we're about to launch it for 2007 and I love that we do them.

I forget that your LJ is less than a month older than mine; it seems like you'd been around forever by the time I showed up. Happy anniversary!

1) I love your icon and

2) How do you find time to cook, clean, and spend time with your children with everything else you do?

I don't do that much cooking, other than breakfast. We have some terrific places around here that make great take-home food, and Aaron makes the steaks and two weekly chickens, so I'm really a side-dishes kind of girl. And the boys are busy most of the time now, with school. When Cate starts this summer I don't know what I'll do with my time!

1. Ask a question - and I'll answer.

How did your Disneyphilia (if that's a word) begin for you?

2. I'm about to post a list of twelve characters, numbered, as a reply to one of my first dozen posts (but don't go looking for it - it's more fun that way) - I have a dozen questions from an older list, but I'd love some new ones to do too! So ask a question, in the style of "1 and 7 and 10 have to get a birthday present for 3. What is it and what giftwrap do they use?"

#6 agrees to set #10 up on a blind date. Whom does #6 choose for #10?

I've been going to Disney since I was 15 months old, so it's never not been a part of my life. It's the lucky thing about being from South Florida, getting to go at least once a year if not more...

Five years? That's about 100 in fandom years I reckon *g*

1. If you had to pick one piece of fanfiction to introduce someone to the HP fandom which would it be?

2. #2 and #4 are orgainising a surprise for #3's birthday, what is it?

The Estate of Sirius Black v Minister of Magic. It pushes all my lawyering buttons and it's just insane, but completely realistic.
Other than that, probably Sam's Registration, which was a very cheering gift-fic he wrote for me when I was sitting outside my son's school at 11 at night so he could get registered for kindergarten in the morning. It's a great story, but it's also the thought behind it - about fandom and friendship - that mean a lot.

1. Are you still affiliated with The Leaky Cauldron? (I ask because I haven't seen you post there in a long time.)

2. 3 sets 10 and 1 up on a blind date. How does it go?

No, not since November of 2005.

Good to know, but kind of sad. Did you leave as part of your fandom maternity leave, too many other commitments, or none of my business?
