QotD: It's My Party...

Which of your birthday parties was your favourite one?
Submitted by Jack Yan.

I've never had a birthday party for myself, but I've hosted a number of successful ones for other people.  It would be hard to pick my favorite one because they range all over the place, from my sister's where she hid under the table and we had to serve her cake to her on the floor, to each of my kids' birthdays, to Itzl's Medfaire parties, to my various friends' parties, especially the one where I learned to play  Encore!, and the one where I learned to play Magic, the Gathering.

I never had a birthday party as a child because my mother didn't want to deal with planning a party for me in the same month as her own birthday.  I suppose it became a habit that was re-inforced after I married because my spouse never remembered my birthday.  By the time we divorced, birthdays no longer mattered.  A 63 year long habit is probably never going to be broken.
