The birthday Friday5

Its someone's birthday today! So, welcome to the Birthday meme!

1. Favorite way to celebrate your birthday (dinner with family? party with friends? a day in solitude?)
Huge Bash with everyone there, preferably a "surprise" party so I don't have to plan it!

2. Do you share your birthday with someone famous? (Click here to find out!)
Ray Bradbury (sci-fi writer)
Norman Scwartzkopf (General)

3. Milestone birthdays:
a) just like any other birthday--they're just numbers, people.
b) a good opportunity to look back/take stock
c) enjoy the black balloons--I'll be hiding under a pile of coats until the day is over
d) some combination of the above, or something else entirely.
Every year you get is a blessing! Milestone birthdays are an excuse for a bigger bash!

4. Have you ever been sung to in a restaurant? Fun or cringe-worthy?
Mostly cringe-worthy, but when I was a kid we used to go to this Italian place where a retired opera singer named Walter would sing Happy Birthday to me. I loved it!

5. Tell me one advantage and one disadvantage about your particular birthday.
Late Summer birthday. Never had school, but never had enough people around for a party. Often it was the week we went on vacation.

Happy Birthday to all of you, early, belatedly or right on time!
