The Concept
The concept for decimal
birthdays is quite a simple one. In basic terms it is the celebration of
every thousand days of your life. We have normal birthdays every year to
acknowledge the day we were born. Decimal birthdays are a recognition
of the day of your birth, but instead of using years as a measure, days are
used. Although the idea is applied to birthdays in this case it could also be used
for calculating the length of relationships. Please use this webpage to
calculate your decimal anniversaries as well!
The Idea
Well the idea did not
really come from any one source. I like numbers (boring I
know!), and had thought about the concept on and off for many years. I
became more interested about the idea when talking to friends about the
concept. As we were all in our mid twenties (in normal birthdays) the idea
of having a party for a 10,000th day birthday was not too far away. Anyway
in February this year my wife had the first official 10,000th day birthday
party that I know about. Needless to say the night was a good one, even
though noone was quite sure what we were celebrating!
Important Decimal Birthdays
The most significant
decimal birthdays are the 10,000th 20,000th 30,000th and if you are lucky
enough 40,000th. Your 21,000th day birthday is your coming of age of course.
