Get the persuasive parts down, and then business it up, if necessary.

So, is it a bad sign when your wife doesn't get you anything for your birthday, not even a card?
Is it still your birthday, or has it passed?

Is it possible that she's waiting for this evening, Gud? Also, I know that when I've been severely depressed, I have lost track of things such as friends and relatives birthdays.
Lilty, received. I will take a look at it and get it back to you by noon or so (central time).
What Anne said. Also, did she get you a card or presents "from" the children?
Happy belated Birthday, Gud!

DH and I don't, as a rule, do anything for our birthdays. Sometimes, well get each other cards (but not always), or we'll go out to eat when we have the cash. But there have been years where the only acknowledgement is a "Happy Birthday!" at breakfast (there's usually a kiss involved, too).
But I think that this kind of arrangement should be mutually agreed upon.
That doesn't sound like a good sign, no.
I'll wish you a very merry unbirthday today.
Hubby hates having a fuss on his birthday, but we always use it as an excuse to get our friends to take us out to dinner.
Or, Gud, oh dear, on your behalf.
Do you know if she remembered, Gud?
