Harry Potter Is Thirty Years Old

Technically.

Since he was technically born in 1980.

But I always like to think of him as my age.

ALSO.

It's JK Rowling's birthday today as well.

Ohmylife would be so different if she didn't exist. The whole world would be different. People wouldn't be half as awesome.

I'm so fucking old, I remember a world where Harry Potter wasn't mainstream. I remember wondering what on earth would happen next. I distinctly remember spending 4 midnights of my life, waiting in line at Borders for the next book... and then barely being able to wait the ride home to read it.

So happy birthday to you Harry Potter, the boy who lived. <3
