For My "Friends" Who Forgot My Birthday.....

When you get OUR age, you basically KNOW who your friends are by the manner in which they take you into consideration: like, birthdays, holidays, what-the-fuck days.......... At our age, we expect and anticipate life being so gotdamn busy, we forget to call AT&T today, so we "mental note" to call them tomorrow. BUT my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. At our age, we are scrambling and diving head first into our 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, or 70's, so we fight hard NOW to keep our shit moving forward into the future. BUT my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. At OUR age, a birthday mention means a lot, because you KNOW your friends are feeling just like you..........scared of getting old. BUT my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. At OUR age, when a friend from 19..something REMEMBERS my birthday after losing contact with me for over 21 YEARS, and the son-of-a-bitch I chat with er' now and then can't even remember WHAT MONTH my birthday is in, you kinda frown up your nose and go: eeeeeeewwwwwwwww. BECAUSE my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. When I get a text from a friend to say another friend's birthday is such-and-such and I mark it on my calender to remember to call, text or email your funky ass on that date, but your forget MY birthday! That's some dumb shit................. Because my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. When you call, text or email me to let me know you have an up-coming birthday just so you can get some calls, texts or emails on THAT day, but you can't remember MY birthday.........that's some MO' bullshit. BECAUSE my TRUE friends KNOW when to remember me. I may not KNOW the EXACT day you were born, but I KNOW when to start asking.......the 1st of the month. I'm just saying.................. My birthday is in AUGUST motherfuckers!
