Quite right valium, my boyfriend got short shrift when he said 'I don't have to get you a card do I?'
He was all 'meh' about his birthday last week but I made a big deal about it and he ended up having a brilliant time.

Happy birthday dita and mrsjay! There's another birthday thread over here with three people on it. That must be enough for a party, I reckon?

It is also my birthday, and I too have the same problem as you OP. I expect too much I think. Anyway, Happy Birthday to us all and may we be around to complain about many more in the future.Smile

mrsjay thats depressing, i got a photo of me as a bridesmaid about 5yo from my aunty in a card, plus a little pressie from my best mate who I ahvent spoken to in months as been so busy and a card and some chocs from the inlaws, then my friend took me out for a scone and coffee on her lunch hour, then my mum came round with a big bunch of flowers. I dont mind the weather got a woodburner not long ago so any excuse to light it.

Take matters into your own hands. Make a fuss months weeks in advance. Throw a party. Insist on everyone celebrating YOU YOU YOU glorious YOU.

I do this. It's much more fun Grin

It's my birthday on saturday and I've made DH organise a party (just because it falls on a saturday rather than a boring week day) But we've just had a pipe leak in the lounge! The carpet is sodden, we have a hole in the ceiling and damage to the walls. I don't know whether to just laugh or cry about it? Sad
