I don't give much thought to birthdays. We had a get-together at my sister's place on the weekend which was like a combo of 3 upcoming birthdays in the next week (me - 50, mom - 80, brother-in-law's dad - 75) plus Canada Day. It was kind of an annoying day but it's the thought that counts I guess. The food was good anyway.
I have been putting in a fair bit of effort lately being nurse to Jenny who had her hip replacement last week. On my actual birthday I mostly just hung out with her and watched a few episodes of The Sopranos.
