I love LOVE using Siri for almost everything and find that the commands feel very natural.
"Tell my husband..." to send a text
"Set my timer for..."
"when is my brother's birthday?"
"Remind me to..."
These all feel natural like I'm speaking to an assistant.

But when it comes to creating calendar events, the suggested commands always feels awkward to me, and I'm wondering if there isn't a better way of saying it that will get the job done. According to the list of commands, everything is either a meeting or appointment. What about dinner reservations, birthday parties, and other other things you'd like to add to the calendar?

What commands do you use for those things that feel more natural than saying, "Set up an appointment for Jake's birthday..."?
