laugh or cry?
It's about 10:30 PM, I've just come home from rehearsal after a very crazy, hectic day, when I come to the realization that I went to my friend's house with a loaf of coconut lemon bread with a candle in it and sang happy birthday to her....ONE WEEK EARLY! Her birthday was marked on my calendar for the 16th, but I guess calendars are just no good for me seeing as how today is the 9th. The funniest part is that she completely humored me, didn't say a word, except of course thank you. My first instinct is to cry at the fact that I just can't get things right anymore, but then I think, ya' know I'll bet I made her day in more ways than one, so I'm goin' with laugh. What would you do?

HAHAHA...laugh!!
i would laugh but the be glad i remembered even if is was a week early
Hey you remembered a December birthday at all, be proud! I have two friends with December birthdays and it is always hard to remember.
Call her up, tell her the truth, and laugh your head off together.
One time I remembered my friend's birthday a week late. Went over there in a rush with a present, apologizing profusely ... until she told me her birthday was that very day. Oops.
Wow, that is funny...from my perspective. I think it's wonderful. And you probably did make her day! Hearing about mommy brain moments makes my life seem more like a comedy and not so much a tragedy. Thanks for keeping me going. PS I love your Christmas music! I think I'm going to steal your whole playlist...someday!
Lost mom brains. . . where do they go exactly? I think it's great that you always make the effort to remember special days. Most people don't even bother. And it does mean a lot to people (even a week early :)
Totally laugh!!! Look how "on the ball" she thought you were!!!
