Do you ever get a birthday hangover? It has nothing to do with alcohol. It's just that general dreariness that you get the day after your birthday. Today I woke up and there was no song sung to me, no presents to open, no anticipation of a family get together... nothing. Just a regular old boring day.
So I'd like to institute a new tradition. You should be entitled to open one present the day after your birthday. It doesn't matter who it comes from or how much it costs but it should be wrapped (because unwrapping it is half the fun) and it should make the gift recipient smile.
Maybe it's a pair of yellow smiley face socks, or maybe a gift certificate to a bowling alley, or maybe a homemade card that just says "I love you". But whatever it is, it should bring the recipient some joy that they wouldn't normally have the day after their birthday. It'll make the transition from birthday to regular day a little less abrupt and painful.
