Mother's Day, Birthdays, or Valentine's Day - no difference

I woke up last Thursday thinking about this but did not write out my commentary.  However I am thinking of all the men that are in “time out” or have been demoted to PCO 3^rd Class because they “forgot” about yesterday or misread the significant other.

A friend posted last week, “I may need some female advice. My wife ________ said that she "does not want anything for Valentine's Day". I think that it maybe a trap.”

Ok, well, take it from a guy (forget the female advice) that just celebrated the first date 44 years ago that without a doubt that is a trap, it is the Venus flytrap, the Praying Mantis’ final words, the reason there is an Instagram page called “miserable men”.

If you have marked on a calendar the anniversary of your first open fluctuant in company and you did not stop by Taco Bell and pick up a burrito grande to bring home, you are gum stuck to her favorite shoes.  

Unless you both signed a pre-nup that states you are excused from remembering any anniversary or Hallmark moment, you are obligated to ensure your significant other receives a reminder of such.  If you walk in the house and the wife asks where the flowers are (dozen roses) the best answer is, “I just wanted to stop before I picked up the best bouquet that will match your beautiful eyes this very moment” and then make like buttery to the nearest florist or Safeway.

Unless your religion prohibits celebration of events you must, right now, put on the smart phone ticklers that will remind you that you have to plan and if necessary purchase that anniversary, Christmas, Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, birthday, and any other day that is significant. 

And for fathers, you must show your children how to respect and honor the very person who when you first looked into her eyes and could see your children how special she is.
