I've never had any "best" birthdays. When I was younger, I was always lucky if just one of my classmates/friends showed up. I mean, I'm not really saying that for sympathy. I don't care now where I'm a lot older and such. Most of the time, my birthdays are spent with just my current family (parents & fur babies). I can't really remember if I've ever had a great birthday. Not only that, but I've always been rather weirded out about the idea of celebrating an aging milestone anyway. In fact, I think I remember getting upset once because people sang happy birthday to me.
