I am such a bad son!

[Chiefsmokingbud]

Ever have one of those days you recieve a phone call and just want to go back to bed? First thing this morning my Dad calls and "informs" me that my mom's B'day dinner is tonight at such and such place.............for her birthday that was yesterday...........THAT I FORGOT! I hate birthdays,and even try to forget my own, let alone remember someone else's. There are actually 3 birthdays that i do remember and that's my sister's and my family in my house. luckily last year my sister called wanting to know if i wanted to go in on a gift for Mom. My family knows i don't remember birthdays so they stayed tight lipped this year to watch me squirm....which i am. "Just write it down" they say. In what, on what? i don't keep a day runner, and if i did i would forget to look LOL. Anyway, anyone else done this, and did you manage to grovel your way out of it? I'm really regretting tonight cuz i know she's going to tear my ass up, which i deserve LOL. I'm off to find the best gift i've ever bought...............that actually took some thought.

Actually no i wasn't saying they were plotting against me, just they were tired of reminding me. Calander? actually no i don't use them other than to see what a date is. I literally don't own a callender i can write on........but i bought one today lol. Well i got a good present then she'll probably gripe i spent too much......you just don't know, i'm doomed.

birthdays are over rated anyway,who gives a shit if you were born or not (excpet family)

its kind of concened wanting present for when you were born,like, who the fuck are you!

 

[Dhertiiboi]

Don't sweat it. Its just a date. You're her son, you can do no wrong. Better sort it out before her next b-day tho...

 

[killa-bud]

you know how in movies and tv and stuff, the wife would get mad at her husband for not getting her a present,what a fuckin bitch thing to do, i mean i can understand if the guy didnt say happy birthday or something, but wanting a present for being born is really fuckin dumb

boooooooo your mommy will be fine little boy, worry not
peace!

Lord I wish I could have one day again with my Mom, make it up to her by visiting when you don't have to, then it will mean something special. Do it while you still can.

Everything went smooth and my dad fessed up that he forgot too, and only overhearing my sister saved him. Anyway, it won't happen next year.

Join the military....

After a being in military, you'll want to go home so bad you'll buy a calender and start watching the days, counting them until you can go home. This will introduce the habit of checking the calender daily

lol, I'm sure theres an easier way...this just popped into mine.

Set your icmag birthday date to your moms birthday. Then when you log on next year, you'll get a reminder lol.

Oh , I forgot to add my method.....Get married and have your wife handle all that stuff.... (She'll remember your Mom's birthday for ya....but then catch 22 - you have to rememeber your wedding day and her birthday now).

Oh, I almost forgot one thing I did do - hehehe. Living in a small town, there is a single florist shop. I prepaid one year for floral delivery - pay now, they'll mark their calender and deliver on the day it comes due. I prepaid that year's birthday, valentines Day, wedding anniversary, and I picked a date in summer - for "sending you flowers, just because I love you." I premade the cards there, they put them in a envelope to use when the day came.

Well too old and disabled so that's out. i don't depend on the Mrs. for anything like that. She has ADD and dylexia so i would be in even bigger trouble.

gmt, now there's an idea
