We practically are! Except I have a different HP site ... hmmm ... one of my HPANA fellows applied to Princeton and didn't get in. If only he'd put Pride and Prejudice like we did ... ;-)

And hey! You're also the one who liked the Garden State soundtrack and The Hours and treasured museum guides! I think we should just get married and listen to cool music and go to museums and read Jane Austen and Harry Potter!

Too much, too fast? *sigh* I understand ...

No, pastariffic, we definately should hang out at Princeton. Let's plan during our first week there to meet at the museum on campus and then go watch the new Pride and Prejudice? Hahahaha.

I love the new Pride and Prejudice!!! I thought it was going to ruin the book and the BBC mini series for me, but I thought it was very well done. It makes me feel so good about life. Haha! I'm such a dork. Can I crash your party?

I also put Harry Potter for my favorite book. I'm glad to find others with the same interests. I know a kid who is one of the webmasters of mugglenet. He goes to my school.

As long as we're getting to know each other, does anyone watch Lost? That would make my day!

Which webmaster? I listen to MuggleCast, I'm such a dork.

Of course you can crash the party! I'm eager to find fellow PP/HP fans, hahahaha.

Andrew Simms??? No way, I'm in love with him!
Well, not really. But still, he's a small celebrity in my mind. Tell him I say hi.

Oh yes, we need tea. Preferably Earl Grey. And scones with clotted cream. Oh man, I can't wait.

We're having a party?? Sweet! I haven't seen the new Pride and Prejudice yet because I didn't really like Keira Knightley in the previews. Also I'm desperately attached to the BBC version. But new experiences, I understand, are positive.

I've never watched LOST ... my favorite shows are Arrested Development and The Office. The best TV comedies in existence, I believe. But I DO love Harry Potter ... in fact, I'm off in a moment to finish a debate on HPANA ... and you really know someone from Mugglenet?? Their April Fool's joke had me laughing hysterically at my computer ... so funny!

So I'm planning on this. Tea, scones, clotted cream, museum, Pride and Prejudice. Excellent.

Oh wow. People, I am sooooo crashing your party. PP, I loved the book, BBC version, and movie (Ahhh! Mr. Darcy! omg omg omg *faints* I also love Mr. Bennet, the old dear.); HP, was so excited about HBP that I read it in 4.5 hours last summer... and I go around quoting random lines.

glinda: my parents just bought the entire first season (is it?) of LOST the other day... and I'm debating whether I should watch it or not. Recommended?

Anyway, party sounds awesome. Just "Lovely," a la Rita Skeeter.
