a forgotten birthday

while typing and pounding away on my computer today, i thought of the possible birthday gifts i should get for my gal pal who's turning 30 this week. and then suddenly i remembered that his birthday is very near hers. and then i recalled-- his birthday falls on 9th february.

which means that i've missed it.

which means that i've actually missed it!!

i know it sounds odd, but i actually am applauding the fact that i've let this day slipped by with nary a thought about it being his birthday.

i guess moving on and healing is like time passing-- it happens when you're not paying attention... especially when you're not paying attention...
