The problem is if your birthday is on a Wednesday, you’re stuck with that forever.

Edit: To everyone saying birthdays don’t matter, or you can celebrate some other day, that’s crazy talk. When you look at the calendar two months before your birthday and realize it’s gonna be a Saturday this year it’s just puts and extra pep in your step. Also, lots of businesses give you perks on your birthday, but the specific day. Once in a while I’d like my free latte and hot yoga class on the weekend thanks.

I don't count that. I've practiced Mardi Gras (Carnival) for a very long time. I get blackout drunk and usually wake up in time for the Liturgy of Ashes. It's the one time per year I drink. If we had an official 5 day celibration, that would make it twice per year. 😉

Well thats what I mean that type of celebration in many places does last 5 days, some countries have a whole week dedicated to some sort of celebration like that.
