There, I did it. Yes I went to see The Order of the Phoenix. When Chamber of Secrets came out, I was such a HP fan, but I couldn't get past Dementor in the 3rd book. My nose is back into Prisoner of Azkaban now--just in the nick of time--with the Harry Potter party coming up this weekend at Palisade. Hopefully I won't lose my stride again.
When planning the Murder Mystery party (or I should say "adult program") a couple of weeks ago (amazing cast of actors, but we were shy on audience) the party packet told me how to prepare. I have to dig a little deeper to find HP party (er... program) ideas. My digging has proven one thing, however, there are a lot of folks partying about HP out there.
I have tried to apply my current internet travels towards the discovery tasks for which I am creating this blog (#7, #8, #9, #10, #11 & #12). I actually haven't crashed into this learning, but for the last couple of weeks have been trying to use these resources so that I would have something meaningful to report. My new subscription to Mugglenet, shows that I really mean it about this Harry Potter business.
Certainly my providential stumbling across RSS Word of the Day shall also prove to be fructous (for me anyway). And as I get to know my way around in this new town, I become more comfortable and realize as I navigate the learning curve, I discover shortcuts on the way. For example, that MCPLD Webolution feed is pretty handy.
I also put Delicious into my toolbox where I promptly embedded the Webolution sites I now frequent--but that's all for now. No time to include the rest yet. A little organizing forethought might be prudent.
Finally, WebJunction has generously accepted my enrollment for their FREE Online Learning Course, beginning September 13th. I also discovered Eve Tallman's (library director candidate) website (www.moablibrary.org) and an NPR interview with her (www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=10471139). I enjoyed both.
I added a few new pics to Flickr--mainly to try and figure out how to include them into my profile on this blog. That's for another day.

So what did you think of The Order of the Phoenix? We saw it last week. Dark, wasn't it? (But I will loved it!)
Hey Jennifer,
I loved Order of the Phoenix, but mostly because my daughter & I went together and she filled me in. I'm still working on #3 so I can get to the printed version of O of Phoenix to see how the movie & book compares. Kids (mostly) have said that the book was better. Not surprising.
