I forgot for the last 7 years or so... always remember about 2 days before, then for some stupid reason I forgot. ha, I remember when I see the flowers. Boy and I feel stupid, he gets me every single time. He makes sure we won't remind me neither, butthead!!! Please someone remind me!! somehow... my outlook calander doesn't work because I never have outlook open on the home computer. I am desperate here!! I can not forget.” 9:53:55 AM 9/26/03 “Oh it's September 28th... (I think)” 9:54:37 AM 9/26/03 “Uh, what day would that be Gem?” 9:54:39 AM 9/26/03 “Hey Gem, your anniversary is only two days away! Don't forget!” 9:55:16 AM 9/26/03 “Gemini buy something Today!” 9:56:16 AM 9/26/03 “I should! I should go and buy something, if I just knew what!!

Have like 20 in my drawer!” 10:02:01 AM 9/26/03 “A chick that forgets her own anniversary? How cool is that?!” 10:02:12 AM 9/26/03 “You don't want to see some of the pics I saw looking for that, do you? lol....” 10:02:53 AM 9/26/03 “Yeah Nigal, it's just the oposite in my marriage. I forget, he doesn't! I know how you guys feel!!” 10:02:57 AM 9/26/03 “lol bit, na, I don't think I care for them too much!” 10:03:38 AM 9/26/03 “Just get one of those mushie cards sign it with a poem, put in the envelope with nothing on the outside and attached it to your tootbrush. If she asks what it is, say "I dunno" with a smile. This way you will remember Sunday morning when you brush your teeth. Give her the card Sunday morning with a Freshly brushed Kiss and tell her ya love her and you want to do what ever she wants for the whole day!!! Go do something romantic.” 10:04:53 AM 9/26/03 “OOPPPSS change all the she's and her's to him and his...haha sorry Gem” 10:06:15 AM 9/26/03 “that's pretty good snafu. I wish I would be that romantic. I can try my best... see I am the woman that rather want's a pice of gear or even a drill for her aniversary then some earrings...” 10:09:34 AM 9/26/03 “A drill, eh?” 10:13:26 AM 9/26/03 tell him you want a drillin... “for the anniversary gift...you could wake up on sunday morn and give em a morning massage...wink wink don't ya know.” 10:22:48 AM 9/26/03 “LOL! yeah stikmon, sometimes you do have good ideas!!” 10:23:52 AM 9/26/03 “Two words: Porn Binge.” 10:36:11 AM 9/26/03 “Dr. Boring Technical Guy here: Use Yahoo Calendar way ahead of time to set up email reminders for events like this.” 10:54:48 AM 9/26/03 “Phil, same with the calender. Once ina while their calenderis not working, and I don't visit my yahoo email or my yahoo site that much. (already thought of that)” 10:58:20 AM 9/26/03 “Gem - FYI: You can have the Yahoo reminder sent to your regular email address or text message to your mobile phone. I can't vouch for the reliability.” 11:14:12 AM 9/26/03 “I'' try that too. Lately on my side though Yahoo is down alot. I don't want to rely on it too much.. Okay, I have set it to my regular email addy. Let's see what it does.” 11:18:29 AM 9/26/03 “It's still not your anniversary yet!” 2:04:14 PM 9/26/03 Gemini “DONT FORGET YOUR ANNIVERSARY” 2:26:42 PM 9/26/03 “:D, I'll forget. you watch me!! I'll forget!!” 2:40:00 PM 9/26/03 “Gemini, If you have a yahoo address, you can click on their calendar option and it will e-mail you a reminder 3 days before(Or however many days early) and on the day. I use it for everybodies birthday, important anniversaries- you know- first date, first kiss, first this, first that, first, first, first....) I also use it to remind me to pay the mortgage and whatever bills are not automatically deducted. Dinner engagements with family. Everything. Check it out.” 4:33:57 PM 9/26/03 “Order something special from a catalog co and have them deliver it on the special day, that way you can continue to forget the date. please don't ask me to give up my sources.” 1:02:41 PM 9/27/03 “So did you remember?” 11:19:04 AM 9/30/03 “yeah I remembered. He was actually laughing at me because he knew I tried hard this time not to forget. Thanks yall!” 11:58:23 AM 9/30/03 “Hey, congrats by the way!!!!” 7:07:13 PM 9/30/03 “Yeah, thanks!” 7:10:28 PM 9/30/03 “oh, this is too funny! Gemini, i always forget which day my anniversary is on. i'm pretty sure it's the 8th of April, but i'm always thinking "maybe it's the 9th." and i always forget whether my husband's birthday is the day before or the day after July 4th. i am a TERRIBLE wife!” 7:10:34 PM 9/30/03 “tarbubble, I think we are the only wifes that forget our aniversary. I think normally it's the other way around. Glad I am not the only one though. LOL” 7:22:23 PM 9/30/03 “Our 30th anniversary is coming up in January. I already booked a nice place for the weekend. Great thing about January weddings is the off-season rates when the anniversaries roll around! Now, if my wife will agree to come along, it will really be great.” 8:54:01 PM 9/30/03 “So when do we get the "trip report"?” 10:18:12 AM 10/01/03 Gemini & Tarbubble.... “....it seems that your behaviour can only be explained by 2 words...and please don't take offense....it's a character trait that isn't easily shaken and most likely will never change....and sterotypically speaking, it is mainly associated with men but as we now know it isn't....the words to described this behaviour is "self-centered"” 10:26:32 AM 10/01/03 “hmmm, self-centered huh?? doubt that very much! But hey...believe whatever makes you happy...” 11:03:31 AM 10/01/03 “To respond is to defend the accusation and therefore imply guilt....think about it....if you can't remember an anniversary date with your spouse....then there is something seriously wrong....and can only be reasoned with simple logic. I'm only pointing out the facts and has absolutely nothing to do with "believing what makes me happy". That in itself is totally illogical. Like I said....don't take offense....being self-centered doesn't mean you're a bad person....it's just part of who you are....we all have character flaws...no person is perfect including myself.” 11:36:10 AM 10/01/03 “tarbubble, I think we are the only wifes that forget our aniversary. I think normally it's the other way around. Glad I am not the only one though. LOL" Gemini 07:22:23 PM 09/30/03 I forget trees birthday all the time...” 11:38:40 AM 10/01/03 “But do you remember when you ex's birthday is when it comes around?” 11:40:05 AM 10/01/03 “Does anyone remember the anniversary of the first date with your S/O? March 23.” 11:40:46 AM 10/01/03 “quilty as charged. Dec 3rd” 11:40:47 AM 10/01/03 “oh, i'm very self-centered, i admit it. but i make a lot of sacrifices to make up for it. mmmmm, our first date was in October of 1994. if i looked at a calendar i could probably pick out what date we got engaged on. it was about 2 weeks later, LOL! i remember the day i first saw him, does that count as romantic?” 1:10:35 PM 10/01/03 “i guess i just don't think the anniversary matters that much. i'm occasionally shocked when i realize that we've been together for almost 9 years now. it just hasn't gotten so old that i need to pay attention. if my husband was really bothered by it, i guess it would be a problem and i'd try to pay more attention. but he's mostly amused by my inability to keep track of dates.” 1:13:04 PM 10/01/03 “ist date with my s/o was february 15th, 1980. I remember because National Geographic found some stark naked tribal women in Zimbabwe or somethin'.” 3:12:11 PM 10/01/03 “treebead got tired of me forgetting his birthday, he made me use his birthday for our old back account in PA years ago. it worked.” 3:15:23 PM 10/01/03 “hmm, I still don't think I am self-centered, but maybe I don't get it. dunn know!! self-centered= selfish, right?? na, I worry too much about everyone else to be considered selfish?? Note: is that how you spell it?? looks too much like "shellfish"....” 3:17:43 PM 10/01/03
