I’m sure I’m not the only one having trouble remembering these suckers, but I managed to do the absolute opposite to the normal problem of forgetting it. Instead I forgot what date it was on so I sent a smug SMS to her showing that I indeed would never forget such an important day. Only problem was I did it one day early. My wife let me know in no uncertain terms that she expected plenty of flowers and bling-bling to look past my faux pas. In a desperate act of survival I obliged.
She later confessed she had completely forgotten about the important day and without my SMS it would probably have gone completely unnoticed.
As always there is a lesson to learn here, but not one I am prepared to waste any of my ever diminishing brain capacity on. It’ll all be a complete surprise next year too...
