No candles, no forks?

So its your birthday, the cake comes out what do you do? Was your answer dive straight in, face first? Then you are correct, it seems. I came back from work and everyone had already started. There was no point trying to catch up, it would not be financially viable and my liver would hate me even more than it currently does. So when I came back I'm glad I didn't miss this since it seems they had a good time.
