Yeah, I'm very glad I was reading those stories and thinking, my husband doesn't do that crappy thing, he's really good about doing this good thing.
Tim is not bad, but when it comes to remembering his own family's birthdays, he is the actual WORST. Every year, I make a photo calendar for everyone in his family with photos from the past year (it was my idea; I like making them). I put everyone's birthdays on the calendar. And then, on our copy of the calendar, I highlighted each birthday in bright yellow highlighter. The calendar hangs in the kitchen where he sees it 50 times a day.
He STILL doesn't remember his family's birthdays. I have stopped reminding him until about 10 p.m. on the actual birthday, at which point he smacks his forehead and asks me why I didn't tell him sooner.
And yet he is still alive.

Oven-crisped taco shell spilled much its filling while being transported and lost almost all its crispiness upon reheating in microwave. Meh.
Tasty, though.

I'll share it with him and let you know. My read on it is sensationalism.
Why do you hate America Texas, Lee?
Argh, I keep getting more to do and no time to do any of it. Gah.
JFC people stop coming to me about a non-urgent non-problem when I am trying to work on something that actually is time sensitive.

It's kind of embarrassing when grown adults use the same tactics as my 10 year old son.
