My Pal, Adrian Rawlins

When Harry Potter was new and stuff, people said I looked a little like Harry, but in recent years I have been told I look like James Potter*, Harry's pops from the Harry Potter movies, especially once he grew his hair out in the later films, and I had to agree.  But now, thanks to Elise (and her remarkable find regarding comparison photos), we have this handy little side-by-side situation, so what do YOU think??

!!!!!  Seriously, I love how even our hair is parted and falling the same way and the sideburns and scarf and glasses and all.  I'm even wearing my oh-so-English Oxford shirt.  It would have been perfect if my beard hadn't been so full, and had I but known the significance this picture would someday have, I might have shaved it off!  HA.  But James sort of has a little scruff going on here, so it still works.  (And sure, he's 20+ years older than I am, but still.)  Now we have to name one of our future children Harry!  (Don't worry, Elise, we aren't touching "Albus Severus"... and no one ever should.)

Some kind of dream come true?  Probably.  I love SO much that my doppelganger is an HP actor. XD


* Let the record show that I did NOT look like young James in any of cinematic incarnations...  Yikes.
