Mercury's year is 88 Earth days. Its tilt is such that for one orbit around the sun (88 Earth days) one side is always in light. For the following entire orbit (88 Earth days) that side would be darkness (night). So in two Mercurian years (two orbits), there is only one day (sunrise to sunrise). Thus it is on MERCURY that you have two birthdays in one single day.

Would your birthdays be closer together or farther apart if we measured a year the right way?

If we measured a year based on the rotation of the Earth around the Sun (solar year) instead of using the Gregorian calendar system, our birthdays would be on the same day each year. This would result in birthdays being the same distance apart with no variations due to leap years like in the current calendar system.
