Well see, nothing really happens on my birthdays until after 3PM anyways. I guess it's because we don't make a big deal out of it. And a lot of my friends are busy this time of the summer, so I don't see them much either. I take it your birthday's during the school year sometime then?
And not quite yet. Cake and presents is always after dinner. That's been my parent's philosophy since I was like...four, and even though I'm older, that's how it goes. I really don't mind though.
