What You Missed: Part III, "What Birthday?"

[xxstumbelinexx]

What You Missed: Part III, "What Birthday?"Last Monday was my birthday. Nobody remembered. Well, Zack remembered but there's a qualifier to that which I really don't want to get into. Anyway, my own parents didn't even call me. I didn't get a present from anyone. It was pretty fucking sad

Actually, i did remember and i meant to call during the day while i knew you and Zack would be out to leave a message on your machine, but work was busy last week. =(

Honestly, that is a lame excuse that is totally illogical. You could have called at night, over the weekend, during this week, etc.

The least you could do is own up to it and say you're sorry.

I don't hate your guts or anything, I'm just tired of hearing stupid excuses because everyone has one.

That really sucks sweetie. I would feel utterly crushed if my mother and grandmother forgot my birthday. At least your husband and friend remembered.

Did your parents at least remember later?

My mother called me the night after and was like "Oh, I was having problems with my calendar." I mean...really? It's been on the same day for 25 years and you need a fucking calendar?

your parents didnt even call? that's just plain harsh..
i hope next year someone makes you feel really special!

Thank you. I hope so too, or else I might go insane.

That is fuckin' ridiculous. I am so, SO incredibly sorry!

If this happened to me, I'd be hurt and offended beyond all reason. The good thing is: There's always next year. Hopefully next time things work out way the hell better for you! And you'll have a pretty little baby who certainly won't forget! :)
