My birthday is next week (tuesday 10.11). A normal year is 365 days, but every 4 (almost) year we add a leap year to correct the actual time it takes for the earth to travel one time around the sun (365,24xxxx-> something). So far I've lived for 7 leap years (84, 88, 92, 96, 00, 04, 08).

So then, if a year is 365 days and it's one week to my birthday (7 days), then it's actually my birtday today once you add in the leap year days! Grats?

Then.. if your "real" birthday is in 7 days:

That means you have actually missed your other "real" birthdays before, since they have been offset by 1 day each 4 years.
Flawed math at its worst

Edit: Forgot to say that the above means you in reality become 6 years younger. More flawed math and even worse!
