Today, it is both my birthday and Easter. My whole family came into town and my mom made a big dinner with all of my favorite foods. After church, I took a nap. When I woke up, all the food, including my cake, was gone. No one thought to wake me up. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I woke up and decided to make my mom a special Easter breakfast in bed. I pre-heated the oven to bake the sausage just the way she likes. Guess where my easter basket was. FML
Today, it was my birthday. My family usually gives me a financial gift, but didn't this time and said nothing about it. I cooked my own birthday dinner without help, then washed everyone's dishes. I got my own cake and ate it alone because they were too busy getting drunk. Nobody bothered to sing Happy Birthday either. FML
Today, I asked my mother if we were eating supper soon so I could take a nap. She said no so I went into my room and fell asleep. When I woke up, everybody was gone. My entire family of 6 went to Olive Garden while I was sleeping. FML
Today, I traveled 3 hours to a town I hate, to spend my birthday with my mom and brother and his family. My mom didn't realize it was my birthday until the cake slice with candles was placed in front of me. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and everyone, family and friends, forgot. Except my dog who left me a present on my bed. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I spent the day doing nothing but chores, amongst which baking my own birthday cake. I was then so exhausted that I couldn't even stand my own company, so I ate the cake alone on the couch, watching TV. It didn’t taste great. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I went downstairs expecting birthday greetings from my parents. Instead, they just sat on the couch saying nothing. Thinking they forgot, I casually reminded them. My mom scoffed and said, "Go do the dishes." FML
Today, I've been so stressed out that I forgot my own birthday. I only remembered when my mom talked to me to let me know she wasn't planning on doing anything for it. FML
Today, I was visiting my mom for Easter weekend. I rarely visit her, since she lives on the other side of the state. She spent the nicest day of the visit sick all day in bed. It wasn't food poisoning, the doctors don't know what it was, but she was fine the next day, when it was raining and much colder, so no outdoors for us. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You totally need a new family.

Yeah, but when your whole family is here, and there's a dinner for your birthday, it seems reasonable to expect to be woken up for it, don't you think ?

Don't worry OP. It's my friend's birthday too. She's not getting anything either because she died a year ago. stfu and get an alarm clock.

This isn't about you or your friend. This is the op's FML. if you want your own, make it. I'm pretty sure if I woke from my birthday nap & everyone had eaten dinner & my entire birthday cake without even waking me, my feelings would be hurt. That's a natural reaction. So quit trying to invalidate the OP's feelings with your drama.

Why do you have to be so rude? If you don't like the FML then don't comment.

You stfu! I hate when people act like bad things only happen to them. While OP's birthday fiasco in no way equates to the death of a friend guess what.... nobody was comparing the two. This is OP's FML. Feel free to make your own about the anniversary of your friend's death.

I'm 25 years old, married 7 years May 4th with a 5 year old and an 18 month old. And I will take that as a compliment. :-)

Foods?

Something wrong with having multiple favorites? I don't see an issue. Or is it the wording? You can only have one favorite. No. I think having mulitiples of different generes are fine. If she said stuff I really like, it would have just sounded stupid.

I did that once, but my family saved a slice

happy birthday and easter OP and maybe you should see if the easter bunny ate the food. If your family did it though, i'd pelt them with eggs (as said before by another commentor) but i'd use melted chocolate eggs >:)
