We made wands for the occasion and everyone agreed that they're a handy accessory. Not just for casting spells but general pointing needs. You can buy an "official" plastic one, but for less than a buck, you can buy a wooden dowel, whittle down the end, paint or stain it, and make up a story about what's inside (mine: the hair of a Ken doll). I made our t-shirts too, with those iron-on things you can buy at any office store. Just create an image and don't forget to flip it horizontally before you print it out. Here's me and M., showing our school spirit:
And here are two Death Eaters, with the DARK MARK! (Watch out! They'll Cruxio you!)

I accidentally (subconsciously on purpose) brought my wand to work today. Accio, books!
Where is the Deering library?
Why it's THAT way!
Awesome.
Love your shirts! You were really in the spirit. M's haircut is very nice. I also cut Andy's hair this week and it's about as short. I got some tips at Christmas from your dad and bought a kit to save $.
Actually, our friend McPatterson said he really loved the movie (thought it was maybe the best one) and he hasn't read any of the books. And he's pretty critical about the logic of a narrative in a movie. So maybe it's not so bad for those who haven't read the book.
I sure thought it was pretty good. I certainly missed some of the stuff from the book, but I loved the Umbrage bits, and thought overall that it was totally fun.
I liked the movie, and Rotten Tomatoes gave it an overall fresh too. I did wonder if non book readers would be into it since I saw several plot lapses that made the character's emotional responses seem streched. Book 7 next week! What do you reckon? Who's not going to make it to the end?
