Lord, so much confusion. Since my internet connection is fake (i.e. being stolen from other people because this apartment is older than the ice age), I can't exactly get online the way I used to.

It's Harry Potter's Birthday!

Just in case anyone had forgotten. Children are probably partying in bookstores all over the world as a result. Which is fabulous and I wish I was geeking out with them.
