Dear Facebook,
Thank you for reminding me it was my own birthday.
Love Jimmy.
Yep, I almost forgot my birthday because I had celebrated it a couple days earlier and so when it was my actual birthday, I forgot. Oops. I’ve never really been a fan of birthdays. I always felt that it’s such a self-absorbed event. The whole “It’s all about me!” “I love ME” “Me me me”….
One good thing about not remembering your own birthday:
When you fill in VIP or membership forms, you may get a little surprise “Birthday” gift when it isn’t really your birthday. How? My birthday is October 8th. But for some odd reason, I have a tendency to say my birthday is on August 10th. Now, when you go shopping, they often ask you to fill in some details and apply for VIP/membership. Well, a few times, I wrote down August 10th and voila!! come August 10th, I get a little “Just For You - It’s Your Birthday!” gift. Who-hoo!
