Has been that way for years.<BR/><BR/>And even more embarassingly, I never remember birthdays either. Considering my ability to recall obscure factoids, most people refuse to believe that I genuinely forget about their birthdays, which sorta sucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21657491.post-3425834847073221652007-05-14T03:41:00.000+01:002007-05-14T03:41:00.000+01:00tell me about it..this year marks the long slide d...tell me about it..this year marks the long slide down to the thirties...and I only have around 3 weeks to enjoy of being 'quarterlifed'...my solution...a big bottle of rum and someone to drive me home and put me to bed afterwards...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
