I agree. I'll be working through my birthday during the day, and using the night to pack to head home for Christmas. There is a tradition over here of bringing a cake to work on your birthday which I don't follow for exactly that reason. However, I think I've bought more cackes, fruit etc. to anyone else this year because there has been so much to celebrate that wasn't random (Winning a tennis trophy, graduating for the third time etc.)
