I saw an article in the paper on Christmas a few years ago, where the reporter interviewed some people whose birthdays were on Christmas Day. One of them said, "A lot of people just give me one gift and tell me it's for my birthday and Christmas. So I wait until their birthday rolls around in June, give them one gift, and say, 'This is for your birthday AND Christmas.'"

THATS AWESOME!!!! hahahah
One of my best friend's was born on x-mas (hence her name and spelling: Christin

) Anyway, I went out of my way to get her 2 separate gifts last year.. a picture frame (that i made as holiday gifts for all of my friends) and an actual birthday gift.
she was really happy that i separated her bday from the holidays..
eta: my bfs bday is about a month after xmas... and this year i asked if hed rather get separate gifts, or one giant gift for our 2 yr anniv (sept), xmas (dec) and his 21st (jan) and he went for the big gift... so i got him a 40gb ipod

but ill still give him something little (like truffles) for xmas and something cheap but personal for his bday too
