Birthday Confusion
I have many siblings, two of whom have birthdays within 4 days of eachother. Easy enough to remember, right? One's on October 24th, the other the 28th. I've known these folks pretty much my whole life, but a year does not go by when I don't screw it up and call the wrong sister with my HAPPY BIRTHDAY! wish.
Today was no exception.
ME: (On the phone with Younger Sister): "Happy Birthday???"
YOUNGER SISTER: "Idiot."
ME: (On the phone with Older Sister) "Just got off the phone with Younger Sister and I guess it's YOUR birthday today and not hers!!! Hahahaha! Happy Birthday!!!"
OLDER SISTER: "Idiot."
At least I'm not quite as bad as my father, who once called Younger Sister on AUGUST 28th and said "Hey there honey!! Happy Birthday!!!!" He didn't even have the SEASON right.
Bet she didn't call HIM an idiot.

I only have the one sister...she'd never forgive me if I got the day wrong.
I'm pretty sure it's March 18th...no, wait...January...oh damn.
Idiot.
So does that mean I'm not a Bottom Feeder of Idiots?
Bingo. Congratulations! Smiley stickers all around.
