I took this from my Harry Potter forum on fanfiction.net. You list, in numerical order, things that make you realise you think about Harry Potter a lot more than most. Remember to look at the number of the last thing listed so you can number yours correctly. If the numbering gets off, I will ask you to fix it. I'll start with several to get us started.
1. You decide you MUST have a big, shabby black dog named Sirius.
2. You write the word "serious" or "seriously" as "sirius" or "siriusly".
3. You start making a "you know you think too much about Harry Potter when..." list.
4. You fashion a wand out of a pencil, stick, ect. and you wave it around muttering the Latin words, hoping something will happen.
5. You're disappointed when nothing happens.
6. You cried while reading books 5, 6, and/or 7.
7. When you make fansites dedicated to your favourite pairing, whether it's canon or not.
8. When you can name the birthdays of Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco, ect.
9. When you can name 5 or more spells from the books.
10. When you make a muggle version of Qudditch.
11. You tell someone you'll Avada Kedevra them
12. You finish your exam and you shout, "Damn! I can't use magic, I'm underaged!
13. You talk about how you could apparate if you didn't splinch every time.
14. You can relate any experiance, word, ect. to Harry Potter.
15. You try to throw jinxes at people who make you mad, then get even madder cause you know it doesn't work.
16.When you find out a friends last name is Salazar, and immediately think of Salazar Slytherin.
17. When you take different coloured glowsticks and throw them at people, pretending they are curses.
18. You and your friends start an alliance at your school to protect the books/movies from being banned because you live in the US where the people are stupid and all 50 states want them banned and 2 have already done so.
I am guilty of 14, 15, 16, and 18. Number 17 is something a friend of mine does. But I am tempted to do it.

Hi! I locked this thread originally, because I thought it is a repeat of one we already have, started by paraphernalia_101 of Ravenclaw: You know you're an HP Fanatic when...
However when I owled LHH she said you deserve five points for your marvelously scholarly, wonderful list! She did ask if you would you please click the link above and port your post into that thread? (and give a link in it to this thread, here.
She advised me to read closer, that it is NOT a duplicate thread, it gives people a chance to add to the list, and then share what on the list they do. So I am unlocking it again! Thanks, Stickler. :::member Percy Weasley Fanatics of Sticking to the Rules:::

Wow...I didn't even see that other thread when I looked to see if there was one for something like this. But I'm glad mine has been judged as being unique. ^^

I've a lot more where those came from and some of them get crazy.
19. You wear cloaks to school.
20. You ask people if they too can see the Thestrals.
21. You refuse to explain what a Thestral is.
22. You jump off a high place with a broomstick under you to see if you can fly.
23. You've actually created a Daily Prophet of your own.
24. You dress in the most mismatched things and walk into public declaring it's your "Muggle attire".
25. You fashion a wand and go infront of a LARGE crowd and start dueling with another Potter fan.
26. You sing Wizard Rock wherever you go.
27. You're future children's names include the first name of Phoenix or harry potter referanceable names.
28. You get a tatoo of the hallows on your wrist, lowerback, shoulder blade.
29. You have a pure white ferret named Draco.
30. you switch in between a british/american dialect
31. You try to get your car to fly to no avail.
32. You made a 42 question quiz and are going to make revisons to incorporate the seventh book
33. Everything that people do or say somehow relates to Harry Potter in your mind.
34. you duel with the *only* fellow potterholic in your school except you during a free period, using drumsticks, and accidently poking someone in the eye.
35. You often think of casting the muffliato spell, and realize you don't have a wand. (ot other spells)
36. you and your friend think of convincing your PE teacher to let you play a muggle version of quidditch during class.
37. you reread the books from 1-7 every (maximum) 4 months, and read random ones all the while.
38. you and your friend try to convince every red-head in the grade to dress up as ron with you (hermione) and your friend (harry) for Purim . (jewish halloween)
39. you do a huge collage of HP sketches and drawings from various sources.
40. You fantasize about apparating, and many other things.
I'm guilty of so many of these...but not all of them. Some of these are things my crazed friends made up.

41. Whenever you talk on the phone, the name Harry Potter gets brought up. Always.
42. You've searched through every alley in your city looking for entrance
43. You hope that Salem (the school) sends out letter at the very end of summer before 9th grade ('cause that means they haven't missed me!)
44. You've created a commercial for Ollivanders.
45. You think the huge golf house with it's little side house on the hill looks like Hogwarts (I swear it does)
46. You can just feel the magic coursing through you...

47. The word manor makes you think of Malfoy manor. 48. You automatically think of Draco Malfoy when you hear about the Draco constellation. 49. The Sirius constellation and Sirius satellite radio always makes you think of Sirius Black. 50. You decide to buy the copy of Tales of Bettle the Bard when it comes out.
Guilty of all...

The most amusing moment was when I was coming home from the local cyber cafe late one night, and as I was walking from my car to the door, I saw a huge black dog and thought "HOLY CRAP THE GRIM!!!" and about soiled myself. Haha.

Loving those. But er....could you go back and edit those numbers to be numbers 64, 65, 66, and 67? I'd greatly appreciate if the numbering stayed on track. Thanks very much!
68. You knew, even before reading Deathly Hallows, that Snape was good. 69. You believed Lucius and Narcissa had somewhat of a caring side, at least for their son. 70. You have a complete forum on fanfiction.net devoted to Harry Potter. 71. You put the "We Didn't Start the Fandom" song on your new iPod Touch. 72. You sing the "We Didn't Start the Fandom" lyrics to "We Didn't Start the Fire" instead of the lyrics to the actual song whenever it comes on on the radio or on your iPod/mp3 player. 73. You decide to make many subtle refrences that only die hard HP fans will catch in your new novel. 74. You have the "Snape is loyal" sticker that Borders and Waldenbooks handed out.
And I am most definately guilty of every one of the ones I just listed.

I'm guilty of 75, 81, and 84. I would be guilty of 79 if our football(american) team ever did anything worth singing that for. Is the 50,000 word story for NaNoWriMo?
85. You met your boyfriend or girlfriend at the release party for one of the books and stayed together for a long time.
I am guilt of 85. I met my current boyfriend of a year and four months at the Deathly Hallows release party. Funny thing is that, merely a couple weeks prior, he had said to a mutual friend of ours that he wasn't looking for a girlfriend. ^_^
