If your bday is this week...
 

Curious to know how your birthdays affected you growing up. Typically I've always considered this "the forgotten week." The dead period between Xmas and New Years. No one is around, the weather usually sucks and everyone is ready for the year to be over. Not to mention in many families as a kid your bday / holiday gifts were combined.

That would suck probably do the birthday on christmas

My birthday is a few weeks after Christmas usually just do it all in one.

my girlfriend is currently 38 weeks pregnant...i am hoping the baby can hold off until after the 1st at least...but who knows. not really crazy about having her birthday be in the 'forgotten week', lol.

Mine is 2nd January - Try getting someone in the party mood the day after New Year - It really sucks...

I think it was my 18th when we kept the party going into the second - Never happened again.....

I get 2 lumps of coal instead of one

Today is the b-day of one of my best friends and YES, he not happy at all about that :P

If your birthday sucks, it's because either your friends and family suck or you suck so nobody wants to help you celebrate. The time of year is irrelevant.

maybe when you're an adult but try planning a kids birthday party when half the friends families are out of town for holidays.

On a positive note though... tax write off for 2016 if the kid is born this week :1orglaugh

Early congrats tho to ya :thumbsup

Growing up I had a friend whose birthday was on December 26th. Once he got to about 8th grade he loved it because if he wanted something big as a gift that year he would pitch it to them as being his Christmas and birthday gift. Also, he was never in school on his birthday which was nice.

Yeah it really sucks. All have the Christmas spirit this week

Mine is two days after the New Years...same present for NY and the Bday...not one but TWO oranges for me....I had to share one with my brother :1orglaugh

holy shit... Good luck with your nipper holding off for a week. Happy days no matter when though! Congratulations :thumbsup

That must have been a wild weekend for your 18th! Unlucky for the others...

I don't care about materialism or aging, it is part of life man, hence you can't do anything about our life-span..
