Birthday MONTH (& Other Oxymorons)

If you’re an about-to-be 12-year-old boy (OK, my younger son), how do you squeeze the most out of your birthday?

After all, by definition a day is only 24 hours — and you’re not even awake for one-third of it.

Slippery Slope

The answer:  morph “day” into “weekend.”

As in, “I get to pick the dessert on my birthday weekend,” and, “it’s my birthday week — I should get to watch what I want.”

And so on.

Coming soon, I’m sure:  “birthday month.”
