    My phone recently reminded me its my wife’s birthday tomorrow. It reminded me at 5pm. I’m living in a rural town where shit doesnt stay open past 4 never mind 5. It reminded me at the least optimal time, so I can spend maximum time sweating about it without being able to do a single thing about it.

    Lucky for me I prepped her a present after last year and its just been sitting there hiding in my closet but god damn if I wasn’t pissed off about that reminder.

    “Oh neat it’s So-So’s birthday. I’ll have to wish them well once I’m done with what I’m currently doing that was interrupted by the alarm, or else I won’t remember to come back and finish it.”

    *immediately forgets that the alarm ever happened as soon as I put the phone back down*

        Man, if I could just stop that stupid habit of swiping away notifications immediately. I have my emails and stuff giving me notifications just in case I get important ones, but it’s mostly just spam that I swipe away after glancing at.

        I’ll swipe it away and immediately be like “shit, I needed that one! Fuck!” That’s how I lost my Medicaid because I forgot about my renewal stuff. Been trying to get back on it for nearly a year now.
