Harry Potter Obsession

**If you're wondering why this post keeps appearing at the top of the list, it's because I keep adding things to it.**

When Harry Potter first came into being, all the hype turned me off of it. Felicia fored me to watch The Sorcerer's Stone on night, and now I'm all but obsessed. Those of you who know me well understand that obsession is something I tend to refrain from (Ya freaking right!). There are several sites which list symptoms of Harry Potter Obsession, but I couldn't really find the ones I was looking for, and so I just made my own list. Keep in mind that all of these do apply to me:

You Might Be Obsessed With Harry Potter If:
*You skip class (on a regular basis) to watch/read HP
*You have a crush on one (or three) of the characters
*You have HP posters on your wall
*You see an owl two nights in a row and get anxious that he could have your letter from Hogwarts
*You think your school is Hogwarts
*You belong to Hogwarts Online
*You use a silly british accent just so you can sound like the characters
*You set your answering machine to say you can't come to the phone because spiders are making you tapdance
*You freak out because a guy at your school looks like Harry
*You are all bummed out because your DVD player doesn't work and you haven't seen a HP movie in a whole week
*You repeatedly have to remind yourself that HP is not real
*You attempt to use spells/charms in every day life (and get frustrated when they don't work)
*After a session of reading a HP book, you long to go hang out with your friends Harry, Ron, and Hermione. (And Draco ^*^sigh^*^)
*You feel ashamed when you find out that Lucious Malfoy is a Death Eater. He was your future father-in-law!
*When you go to a dance at your school, you more than once grab your cell phone, thinking that you will call Ron and Harry to come hang out with you.
*You fall asleep clutching your precious HP book with your "wand" laying near by.

*When you see the actors from the movie in other films, you think things like "Wow. I never knew Professor Lupin was an actor. Tomorow in Dark Arts I'll tell him that I saw him play in Gangster Number 1."
