Happy birthday! :D
I usually will go out for dinner with my family and then we come back to my house for cake, ice cream, and gift-opening :)

Family comes over and celebrates it for me. I don't really do anything. Doesn't bother me.

Happy birthday breh!
Typically a birthday for me consists of cake-eating and card-opening.
Although in my family birthdays extend the whole week, so as a general rule everyone must be extra-nice for the next 7 days. :mrgreen:

Happy Birth, LarHadCol. By coincidence, today's my birthday, too. I spent it surfing the internet, editing my new book which I hope to publish in two to three weeks, and making notes for another book I'd like to write after this current one is finished.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GUYS. I don't really do anything special for my birthday but I kinda like it that way.

Try my best to be very busy, work if I'm working at the time, try to be as far away from anyone who celebrates my birthday as possible, and fervently hope everyone forgets !

Happy birthday, LarHadCol!

Let's see, this year my birthday started with me getting up early, play some Pokemon. Ate a surprise breakfast with radishes. Opened presents. Relaxed, talked to my family, played a game.
Had a wonderful dinner (tikka masala) with wine while watching a DVD.
the above is the usual stuff we do, just the way i like it (although most years it's too hot for tikka masala).

Cake was postponed until my mother's vacation started some days later.

I buy myself something I've been wanting but that might be a bit special or big-ticket, that I wouldn't buy just in the normal run of things. I either shop for it on the day, or, more usually, ahead of time but don't open it until my birthday.

I also make sure I have in some favorite foods, nothing too fancy, just things like a favorite meal and favorite icecream for dessert. I will either take the day off, or if working, just make my evening nice by lining up a good movie to watch after my meal. My gift I bought myself might even be the movie on Blu-ray, as I don't buy a lot of movies.

I might also try to make it to the parklands to visit my birds, as they make me happy, so that would be a good day. My friends and acquaintances don't know when my birthday is and I like to keep things that way, as I don't want to spend it with people; that's stressful. I wouldn't be on the computer at all, I like to get away from the internet for the ideal nice day.

I go out and eat, if it's a working day and i'm going home from work. If not, nothing.

Go out to eat at my favorite restaurant with my grandparents, open presents, and eat a birthday cake. ^^

I usually get together with family and have cake and presents. A couple times I had a birthday party with friends.
