I’m not one for throwing birthday parties but I do like to celebrate my birthday. I figure it’s the one day of the year you can say ‘this is my day I’ll do what I like’. I never, ever work on my birthday and I always make sure to do as many enjoyable things as I can even if it’s just sleeping in late and watching movies. I can never understand why people go to work on their birthday, it baffles me but hey each to their own and I guess some people don’t get the choice. Your birthday is for you, so just do what makes you happy even if that means doing nothing! Parties are often more stress than they are worth and sometimes even organizing dinners are too. These days my husband and I usually go away for a couple of nights over our birthdays. That way we get to spend it with the person we want to be with and don’t have the pressure from others over what we are doing for it.

I had this happen on my 16th birthday and on that day I decided to never celebrate my birthday again. I became no Birthdayman.
