Birthday*

My Mum told me recently that I was due on the same date as Flaily. In the event, I actually arrived three days early. Are there any synergies in play here?

Me: Earlier this year, when we found out the due date, I thought it would be cool if we had the same birthday.
W: May be for the first couple of years, but then there'll be 18-odd years of it.
Me: Exactly, may be more. I mean, I can't begrudge it if he did arrive today but...
W: You don't want to share a cake?
Me: Does that sound mean?
W: No, it doesn't. Probably best if they are separate days.
Me: Yeah...
W: You know, if he arrived before today, I toyed with the idea of getting you a card from him, but then thought it best not to preempt things.
Me: Aww, that would have been sweet.

*Apologies to anyone out there who thought this post might mean something else!
