In honor of all my friends who have birthdays (which would be all of you! I hope...)
I really enjoy celebrating other peoples birthdays. Over the years I have done various things to celebrate my friends. Here is a little list of the more interesting ones:
- For Reid who lived on the other side of the state - I sent another friend of mine to his dorm with a cupcake. She had never met him before, and showed up at his door while on the phone with me. I learned later that they became pretty good friends after that - so double present.
- For Jess who shares the same birthday as me - I wrote a play about our friendship. I narrated the play which was about how we met. I used the girls in the service house to act it out. It was a lot of fun.
- Most recently - I had 10 of my friends call up Bridgett and wish her a happy birthday from me. These people didn't know Bridgett and she didn't know them. It was a lot more work that I had anticipated, but it was a lot of fun!
- One done to me: When I was in England, Bridgett called my house and left a message with one of the girls who lived there. When I returned from Paris the girl sang "Happy Birthday to Scuba Katie" to me. It was great!
- Another one done for me: My great aunt Bernie has sent me cakes through the mail on 2 different birthdays! She is also my birthday buddy.
What have you done for your friends on their birthdays? Has anyone done anything special for you?

That was so fun to do that for Bridgett...thanks for letting me in on that! I don't have anything creative...I've had a couple of surprise parties thrown for me, which is always fun. Once when I was away from one of my good friends around the time of her birthday I wrapped up seven gifts for her so she would have one to open each day for a week leading up to her birthday.
