Okay, so I am really not the best at keeping up with a blog. Appologies to my 3 readers :)
So the most exciting thing happening with me right now (besides enrolling my 3 1/2 year old into kindergarten!!!) is the possiblity that I will be attending LeakyCon 2011, at Universal Studios, during the weekend of July 14-18!! For those of you who are wondering why on earth this is at all important, let me enlighten you.
I am one of the worlds biggest Harry Potter fans. Potterhead, Potter Geek, Harry Potter Nerd, one of those Harry Potter people, yes, that is me, call it what you will. (My oldest son's middle name is James, guess what Harry's middle name is? Just sayin'.)
LeakyCon is probably the biggest Harry Potter convention, and I have only ever attended one because they are mostly in the US, the one I did attend was luckily in Ottawa where I was fortunate to meet a whole bunch of great people, including Travis Prinzi author of "Harry Potter and Imagination" and the man behind the website The Hogs Head (http://thehogshead.org/) but I digress...
This convention will be held at Universal Studios, the home of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Theme Park AND will be held during the opening of the last Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, and thus then end of an era.
To be surrounded by HP fans, in Universal Studios, during one of the biggest HP conventions, watching the very last HP movie would be the best experience of my life, surpassed only by the birth of my children, and my wedding day. Exciting. Too much excitement really, for one person. I might burst.
My plans are just waiting for the OK from my BFF to get a few days off of work so he can come with me.
This is when I ask you to pray, or whatever it is you do. :)
ooooooh!!!!! that would be so amazingly exciting, memory making and fun! I truly hope you can go, I want SOMEBODY I know to be there! And get lots and lots of picture :)
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for you but also really sad! Who am I supposed to go see the final installment with now? It's been our thing lately :(
ReplyDeleteHope the "BFF" can get the days off. Sounds like you'll have a great time.
ReplyDeleteYou go girl!! I'm very excited for you. I wonder who will be babysitting while you are away??LOL I'd love to go with you but Zorro seems to keep me from travelling. DARN!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! Still waiting for confirmation!
ReplyDeleteANDREA _ COME with us! Or ME if Jeff can't come, I will pay for your convention ticket and it will cost you less than $1000 for the trip! Think about it!
