Very cute Carl if it didn’t hit so close to home. I have had birthdays that weren’t remembered by my husband and four kids until the day was nearly over and it wasn’t because any surprise party was planned for later.
It took me very very long to understand the joke. I only began to understand it after reading most of the messages. And the one about Napoleon I did not get at all. And since you write very well, I think you should add a little explanation for people like me; we are many. There could be an arrow plus text saying: for an explanation click here.
The vines crawls up the wall, the crab crawls along the shore, the bug crawls and now the husbands crawls because he forgot his wife’s birthday. Thanks for visits.

I like the last one, but my interpretation of the first is that some folks leave us “crawling up the wall….” especially those folks who forget our birthdays.
I can’t scold my hubby if he forgets a special day, because I forget as easily as he. We both missed our wedding anniversary in 2009 by several days before one of us remembered it. We celebrated late. Big deal.
You’re cartoons make me laugh. That’s really a prostrate crawl.
wow…it would stink to be him…hoping her thought bubble went something like this:
“it was my birthday yesterday, and I know it slipped your mind. How about we go out tonight to celebrate? I’ve forgotten yours before–no worries!. It’s called “being human”!’
let’s hope so, anyway…otherwise, if she’s a nag, I’d’ve forgotten it, too.

For some reason very few excuses work except pure honesty as you suggest.One year it was my intent to give mother a copy of an anthology of poems in which one of mine appeared(page 1) and it finally came 2 months laster. She understood.
MY GOODNESS. HELLO FUNNY CRAZY LADY. MISSED YOUR BLOG. HOW IS YOUR PROJECT COMING ALONG? ARE YOU UP AND RUNNING AGAIN? Make sure I am inscribed. I mean perscribed. Well you know what I mean.
It is such a shame that society does judge by looks, not by beauty on the in side – I have a bad acne condition and I sware I didn’t get some of the jobs I applied fore because of it. For example, every job I apply for in the Paralegal world, they deny me. Wha t e v e r.
The rule is “beautiful people” sell the product or service. Management refuses to realize how much talent and efficiency is out there passing up “she’s not cover girl” types. The”types” are all the rest of us.
