Time to celebrate

Happy birthday, mum. And happy nameday to grandma and me!

I remember clearly the first time I had a nameday after getting together with Tim:
Me (fishing for something) -It's my nameday today. Shouldn't you do or say anything?
Tim (confused) -Eh, happy nameday?
Me (honest) -Thanks!
Tim (still confused) -So, what is a nameday anyway? Is it like a birthday?
Me (a bit distant) -Yeah, exactly like a birthday.
Tim (worried) - So, you get like presents and stuff?
Me (unfortunately sounding surprised) -Presents? Yeah, eh... sure!

I'm sorry to say that Tim didn't buy it. And I still only have one birthday, instead of four... Bummer!
