Eight Things We Wouldn’t Mind If J.K. Rowling Were Our Neighbor

Here’s something you don’t think about everyday: There are people who are J.K. Rowling’s neighbors. Recently, those neighbors complained to the media that the gardeners the author hired to trim her 30-ft hedges were causing traffic around the neighborhood. Those people clearly don’t know how lucky they have it. Here’s a few things we wouldn’t mind if J.K. Rowling were our neighbor:

1. Passive aggressive notes about taking our garbage bins up on time.

Ohmigooodddd, did you see it’s signed by J.K. Rowling?!?!

2. If her dog barks all night. 

Fluffy has three heads. They can’t all be happy all the time.

3. Loud music during parties – especially if it were “Hedwig’s Theme.”

4. If her lights were on all night. 

She’s probably writing her next great book!

5. Watering her plants when she’s not home. 

Do you think Aguamenti will work if it’s used at her house???

6. If she blocked our car in.

Maybe if you watch from the windows you can orchestrate leaving at the same time, and she’ll wave to you or something.

7. Birthday parties in the back yard with hundreds of loud, noisy kids and… a “magician” (or two).

8. When you try to celebrate Harry’s birthday with some tasteful lawn decorations only to be outdone by the display next door.

Even though you’ve been celebrating since wayyyy before she moved in.

Basically, Jo, there’s nothing you can do that would make us want to live anywhere else. <3<3<3<3
