What is the appropriate way to handle a birthday on September 11?
If your birthday is September 11, is it now inappropriate to act in the jolly way you would if your birthday were any other day? (This is supposing you are the type who is excited and goofy on your birthday, not the doom-and-gloom birthday type.)
What if your friend/coworker’s birthday is September 11? If, under normal circumstances, you would have done something like decorate their cubicle, bring in a cake, or do something else celebratory, is it still appropriate to do so if the birthday is on September 11?
