A couple of the girls from work just collared me for not letting them know it was my birthday - I told them I just didn't want to make a big deal out of it and, although a little peeved (for show?), they seemed to accept it.
In any case I may have slightly misjudged the gift aspect. Today we celebrated a couple of colleagues' birthdays with a cake - a very nice gesture. It seems present-buying is no longer the order of the day in our team (when the team was more numerous, and in all of my other jobs for that matter, it was definitely a bigger thing).
Then again, this was only a consideration, an aside from the main point - I'm still apathetic and I've already wasted far too many words on it.
Case closed - until next year.
