Welcome to the first thread I've ever started.

Today is my birthday. I'm 31, so no biggie. What's weird is, my whole life, July 6 was a *big deal*, a *special day*. So, even now, as an adult (biologically anyway), it seems strange to hear people just saying the date - "July sixth" - as just another day on the calendar. Does anyone else have this strange feeling, or am I just fucked up?

I know what you're thinking: "Oh, he's just trolling for 'Happy Birthday's." Not true. But I wouldn't be adverse to hearing it....
:D
 
Happy birthday Thrillhouse.

I feel the same way. I'm younger than you are, but my b-day was always a big deal, and now it's just another day. I don't mind it being just another day.
 
my parents don't celebrate (or remember) my birthday..so it's never been a big deal to me..the last few years, my sister has decided to remedy this for me..

my birthday is on halloween..and we have this big haunted house/party...super cool! so birthdays are bigger now then ever for me!

happy birthday!
 
Thanks to everyone, and Happy Birthday back at all the other July babies.

I think we probably all feel that way. Someone says "December 23," and I'm like, cool! That's my birthday! :)
Man. Did your family gave you those combination birthday/Christmas presents because they were too cheap to get two? That would suck.

My birthday is on July 13, one week from today. Whenever I hear the commercial for NASCAR on NBC that shouts that it's returning to the network on that day, I think in my head, "Cool!"

The Game Show Network will also have a three-hour marathon of their new and improved version of the '80s game show "Press Your Luck" (simply called "Whammy!") on my birthday. But all things considered, I still like the old one. A big cheesey set and Peter Tomarken. Absolutely cool.
